What: Sofia Härdig @ Aspen

When: Thursday August 21 20:00

SOFIA HÄRDIG LIVE – BIO ASPEN 21 AUGUSTI

Sveriges bäst bevarade rockhemlighet? Inte längre. Sofia Härdig, hyllad som " a rock goddess" (The Revue, US) sitt nya Album Lighthouse of Glass har både P1 Kultur och DN Kultur utropat till något av det starkaste just nu.

Med rötter i både postpunkens kompromisslöshet och soniskt episka ljudvärdar har Härdig skapat sitt mest drabbande verk hittills. En egenproducerad ljudvärld som krossar genregränserna och

där sårbarhet slår hårt och repetition blir till transcendens.

Eller som det Tyska OX Magazine skriver “A mixture of Patti Smith and Nick Cave, as if she were to ‘dance barefoot’ with Cave as backing vocals. Her songs echo Alan Vega and PJ Harvey with goth drama and proto‑punk urgency.”

– OX Magazine

“Härdig’s soaring vocals – channeling the spirit of Patti Smith and theatrical, otherworldly sweep of Bowie – are the centrepiece, delivering both vulnerability and force.”

– Louder Than War (UK) ★★★★★ – Single of the Month

“Det stora, episka och repetitiva – Sofia Härdigs nya gör Nick Cave avundsjuk.”

– P1 Kultur

“April”, the string-infused album opener suggests a PJ Harvey influence, with a smidge of Nick Cave too… the defining factor, though, is Härdig’s sense of what constitutes a song."

– Kieron Tyler, Mojo / The Guardian

“Her new stuff is just fabulous”

– The Crack Magazine (UK)

Live är Härdig rå, närvarande, och oförutsägbar. En kraftfull solo performance med elgitarr, loops, elektronik där det lyriska och det soniska vävs samman till en musikalisk urladdning som inte liknar något annat.

Hon har samarbetat med Bebe Risenfors (Tom Waits, Elvis Costello), Yoshimi (Boredoms), samt medlemmar ur, The Hellacopters, Bob Hund, The Boredoms, och Belle & Sebastian. Bland producenter och mixare finns Jari Haapalainen och Grammisvinnaren Nille Perned – men det är Härdig själv som står bakom produktionen av Lighthouse of Glass.

Missa inte denna unika kväll på Bio Aspen – där postpunkens nerv, gothrockens svärta och poetisk urkraft kolliderar.
