"A new romantic voice from Europe"
Teitur (pronounced TIE-tor, full name: Teitur Lassen) comes from the Faroe Islands, way out in the ocean between Iceland and Scotland. He plays acoustic guitar, accompanied by subtle, beautiful arrangements. His original songs are highly romantic, and in person he's disarmingly direct and completely mesmerizing. HipOnline called Teitur's "Poetry & Aeroplanes" CD "one of the most accomplished and emotionally engaging albums in recent memory." And if you want to know how to turn "Great Balls of Fire" into a lush, melancholy dirge straight out of relationship hell, then you have to come to the Ark and check out this young songwriter on the rise! Teitur comes to town with a new album, "The Singer," his first since a Faroese-language release in the spring of 2007. The next Serge Gainsbourg? He just might be.
