Fabula

The singer songwriter, Fabúla has been making waves in her native homeland since 1996, when she released her first solo-album. Born and raised in Reykjavík, Fabúla has been active in the alternative/pop scene for the last ten years. She received her education in Dramatic Arts and Jazz Piano in Trondheim/Norway and London and her career as a singer and songwriter took off when she moved back to Iceland. Since her return she has released three albums,Cut My Strings in 1996, Lipmark On The Sole – Kossafar á ilinni - in 2002 and Dusk in 2006.Twice nominated for the Icelandic Music Awards, all of Fabúlas albums have met with critical acclaim. Her music does not fall easily into one category, being equally influenced by jazz, folk and contemporary pop. Playful, yet somewhat melancholic she has a distinct sound, that is fragile, warm and full of little details. Fabúla plays piano and harmonium and appears either alone, or with her full band including violin, cello, guitar, bass and drums. In addition to her distinct sound, Fabúla has also been known for using unusual scenery when she performs; often using old furniture, pictures, videos, and many other different and surprising elements. In November Fabúla will release her fourth album In Your Skin
