Ninna Andreasen with Band

Ninna Andreasen is currently active with the album 'Den her bakke har jeg tænkt mig at dø på' – folk-rock with edge, warmth and stories that both bite and embrace.

With her new album 'Den her bakke har jeg tænkt mig at dø på', Ninna Andreasen cements her position as an original voice in the Danish folk-rock scene. The album revolves around principles, life attitudes and steadfastness – not as a dramatic confrontation, but as a quiet survival strategy.

The lyrics are populated by characters and fates that insist on holding fast, even when it's impractical, troublesome, self-sabotaging or directly impossible.

Ninna Andreasen has over the past 15 years written songs that make the audience cry – sometimes from laughter, other times from tenderness. With songs like 'Den Sidste Vinterdag', 'Kridthuset', 'Stæreblind' and 'Mellem dig og mig', she has created a back catalog that speaks to everyone who enjoys captivating folk songs and a sharp angle on songwriting.

The classic love songs she leaves to others. Instead, she writes about what fills the 91-93% of life that doesn't involve relationships: About village squabbles, swindlers, alcoholic parents and the small and large battles we all fight.

Live, it becomes particularly clear that she can both prick and embrace the world around her. Bands of Tomorrow described her as “a female version of Allan Olsen ... a good storyteller and at times, as bold as a butcher's dog.”

She has already been using these talents since she was very young at Esbjerg's beverdinger, where she learned to handle a stubborn audience. Since then, she has played on big and small stages all over the country – from the festival Fanø Vesterland to opening for Allan Olsen in Sæby and Johnny Madsen in Varde.

Now she is current with an album that gathers the threads from her work: folk-rock with an edge, social indignation and lyrics that bite – but also with a warmth and humanity that makes the audience always feel invited in.
