Oh Land Oh Yeah

Spotlight Oh Land

The artist Oh Land has an arguably sweeter real name – Nanna Fabricius. Going by Oh Land makes sense; however, and based on the reviews of her performance at SXSW she incorporates wild performance art and elaborate stage props into her act.

Nanna is a former ballerina from Copenhagen whose career was suddenly halted by a back injury - something rather normal in comparison to Black Swan. To console herself and find a new path in life she turned to music, which was always a great influence on her (her mother is an opera singer).

Her EP Fauna is a collection of quirky beats from a drum machine and soft and clean vocals. That talent and her stunning beauty landed her with Sony. Oh land’s next album is due for release in March. She works at a pace similar to Lil Wayne and creates 100s of songs for each album, and then whittles it down to 10 or so.

I think her electro pop vibe has got some legs under it, and she’ll do quite well in the music scene. If that doesn’t pan out she was just signed to model for Missoni… so there is always that.
Enjoy some of these tunes and have a killer week,
