OUT FRIDAY AUGUST 25 ON BELLA UNION
VIA [PIAS] / INERTIA MUSIC
Listen to new track “Undercover” now
“Susanne Sundfør’s music packs quite the epic, emotional
punch—imagine the sweeping teenage grandeur of M83
mixed with Zola Jesus’ throaty electro-goth.”
The Fader
“Don’t miss out on this, it’s a quite brilliant album.”
The Guardian on Ten Love Songs, ★★★★★
Acclaimed Norwegian singer-songwriter and producer Susanne Sundfør will release her highly anticipated new album Music For People In Trouble on Friday August 25, through Bella Union via [PIAS] / Inertia Music.
Of “Undercover”, Susanne said: “The first single from my upcoming album is called Undercover and I was inspired by Dolly Parton when I wrote it. She’s a genius songwriter, and I’ve listened to her throughout my whole life. I go on all these musical adventures but somehow always come back to the country and folk music. It’s close to my heart, maybe because I listened to it in my childhood.”
Sundfør’s most poignant and personal album to date, Music For People In Trouble marks her out as one of the most compelling artists in the world. The album was inspired by a journey Susanne made in a bid to re-connect, travelling across continents to contrary environments and politically contrasting worlds from North Korea to the Amazon jungle.
Susanne said of making the album: “We are living in a time of great changes. Everything is moving so rapidly, sometimes violently, sometimes dauntingly. I think a lot of people experience anxiety these days. I wanted to address these emotions on the album.”
