Drawing upon the eerie sounds of the Northern hemisphere and musically influenced by acts such as Feist, Nico and Anthony and the Johnsons her simple setup of bass, piano, guitar, vocals and percussion intertwines in a whirlwind of creaking pianobenches, floating vocals and cantankerous guitars. With ease this 24 year old Dane creates sensations that move the listener, taking them through a maze of emotion, nostalgia and even lonesomeness that one cant get out of, while simultaneously unconsciously not wanting to.
”I like to work within my own little bubble whenever I write songs so no one can hear me. It’s a very personal process and the songs have a strong connection to my self; a theme, a feeling, an experience or a state of mind”
In the recording of her EP ”Hold on to Nothing”, she and her former bandmate had teamed up with various known producers, but in the process they found their own sound and decided to produce the four songs fully on their own, at their own pace and with their own hands.
In the final stages of the process Brian Batz from Sleep Party People mixed the ep and added the eerieness he is so well known for.

Broken Twin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Finally facing the sky
Balancing on a tide
Between day and night
Now that you're free
Now that the stars are aligned
I hope you know what to find
I hope you make up your mind
You're on your own
And the world is new
Infinite oceans of blue
Now that you're free
Roam
You're on your own
And the world is new
Infinite oceans of blue
Hanging all over you
Now that you're free
Finally facing the sky
Balancing on a tide
Between day and night
Now that you're free
Now that the stars are aligned
I hope you know what to find
I hope you make up your mind
Roam
You're on your own
And the world is new
Infinite oceans of blue
Now that you're free
Roam
You're on your own
And the world is new
Infinite oceans of blue
Hanging all over you

Jack Oakes The director explained they wanted to end the series on a high. Four seasons was perfect, they came told an incredible story and ended it. Banshee was a really awesome show, loved it since it first aired unil it's last. 😊
