Even though music is something I travel around doing, it is also a very private thing. A sort of escapism. Agnes Obel escapismmusicprivate Change image and share on social
I have a difficult relationship with jazz. My parents really love it, and I went to a school where jazz was considered the best thing ever, so I had to leave it be for a long time. But now I'm rediscovering it. I'm approaching jazz in a different way. Agnes Obel approachconsiderdifficult share on social
With 'Philharmonics,' I had to do a lot of interviews, and it was like I was corrupting something. In many ways, I've said everything in the song. And either I can't go back to what it was because it's changing when I play it, or I still haven't figured out what the song is about. Agnes Obel backchangecorrupt share on social
I really believe it's not bad to look back within music. I don't mean retro, but using your own memories to make a song because our memories are what make us who we are. Agnes Obel backbadmake Change image and share on social
The piano and the singing are two equal things to me - maybe not inseparable but very connected. You can say they are like two equal voices. Agnes Obel connectequalinseparable Change image and share on social
I used to get very nervous before a concert. It's okay when you are in a band. You can kind of disappear. But when it's just you... yes, that was difficult. I would not say it is easy now. But when you do it for a long time, you do learn to cope. Agnes Obel bandconcertcope share on social
