If you are swept away by sweet melancholy sounds in soundtracks like Yann Tiersen’s Amélie, take pleasure in being trapped inside a haunted music box, and delight when lyrics are at odds with the melody, you will thoroughly enjoy Danish singer-songwriter-composer Agnes Obel.
Obel’s debut album Philharmonics marries her smooth vocals with eerie piano. Less than a year since its release, Obel embarks on her first full US tour. And, fortunately for you, lucky readers of TVD, you have a chance to win a pair of tickets to see the show. Agnes Obel will perform in the intimate downstairs stage of Sixth & I Synagogue on Monday, June 13th.
Agnes Obel literally just posted on her facebook earlier today, “Agnes is on tour in the US right now a few time zones from home. What songs remind you of home and why?”
To win the tickets, in the comments below, tell us the song that reminds you of home.
The winner will be chosen on Thursday (6/9) at noon.
