Marianne Sveen - Next Of Kin (Coloured Vinyl) (LP)

Multiinstrumentalist, singer and composer/songwriter Marianne Sveen twists the term next of kin and takes you into her thoughts on the subject, creating an atmospheric and almost cinematic universe, where you vividly and the relations they are regarding. The songs are based on reflections while working as a nurse in mental health care and how it can be perceived so differently. The album is conceptual and the soundscape mirrors the dynamic in the songs, gently touching your cheek in one second, and striking you hard in the stomach next. The cinematic and detailed sound emphasizes the song mood and amplifies these very strong and emotional stories. Award winning Ola Kvernberg and Daniel Herskedal are some of the brilliant musicians contributing to this masterpiece.
