Om udgivelsen
On January 21 Laura Illeborg’s new album These Quarters is out. The album is recorded live in Sweet Silence Studios with her regular band through the last four years and three albums: renowned guitarist Knud Møller (Johnny Madsen), bass player and composer Niels Dahl (Vildnis) and guitarist Rune Funch (Lars H.U.G). And as hot news this time, drummer Jesper Elnegaard (Claus Hempler) has been invited to join Laura Illeborg’s poetical and melodious universe.
It’s that hand-made, half-acoustic, Nordic/Americana-inspired tone that is the legal tender here, along with Laura Illeborg’s original, poetic texts and natural, artless singing. The album passes through your ears and goes straight to your heart.
