Who can say they got their international credentials from a German advertisement? Not many, but Agnes Obel can. A native to Copenhagen and citizen of Berlin, Agnes sings to us from across the ocean with a voice as sweet as an ocean breeze and powerful as the glide of a bird. Rhythmic strums and taps set the stage for her eloquent vocals on her single, "Brother Sparrow," which can be heard above and swooped up below. For those of you who have problems relaxing, let Agnes ease your stresses and soothe your mind. It's definitely worth a second listen since she accomplishes as such.
Her debut, Philharmonic, is due for release on April 12.
