# 1 @ Det Elektriske Barometer & High 5!

Hi, Folks!

YOU guys are fantastic! Why? Just because you are!

But – you also make good things happen for Hymns from Nineveh. You’ve been voting and cheering for us on the various hit lists: Soundvenue High 5, Det Elektriske Barometer and Systemlisten.

Sister Sorrowsong is now numero UNO at Soundvenue High 5 and Det Elektriske Barometer – and, it’s number 5 on Systemlisten – this is FAN-TAS-TIC!! Thank you SO much!
Mechanical Bird is number 2 at Det Elektriske Barometer – we’re thrilled :) ! Thanks for cheering for this project too.

If you want to vote for Sister Sorrowsong again, it would mean the world to us.

Systemlisten (your vote counts if you vote for 2 other acts)
Det Elektriske Barometer (your vote counts, if you vote for 4 other acts – I suggest that you vote 4 Mechanical Bird as well :) )
Soundvenue High 5 (your vote counts if you vote for 2 other acts)

Yeah – thank you so much – you make miracles happen.

With love,

Jonas the Hymnboy

Summary: A fantastic weekend

 

The Hymnband @ Døgnaben, aka Nyborg gas station

 

Hi, everyone.

This weekend we did a minitour in the three largest cities in Denmark: Copenhagen, Aarhus and Odense. Three sold out shows at three great venues. A total of 455 wonderful people attended these concerts. Overwhelming.

It was our first three shows as a full band, so we were a tiny bit nervous – but the love from the audience made us calm and joyful; it may sound as a cliché, but really – we felt your love. Thank you! GAFFA reviewed the Aarhus show, and gave it 5 stars and a lot of praise. You can read it here (it’s in Danish, sorry).

In about three weeks time, we’ll come to Huset in Aalborg. It’ll be great.

We took some pictures during the weekend. Have a look at some of them here, and view the whole photo album on Facebook.

TOUR coming uuuup! Few tickets left.

HI folks,

My point of view

We’ve been practising for quite a while now to get the new arrangements right – and, we’re SO EXCITED about the upcoming tour next weekend! There’s a good vibe at the rehearsal space.

There are only few tickets left in Aarhus and Copenhagen, so if you want to be sure to see us there, go get a ticket in pre-sale! There are still tickets in Odense – and you can get them here.

 

David is messing around with the effects - it sounds marvellous

Jake is in the "banjo-bandana mood" and Nikolaj looks through his notes (take a look at all that beautiful hair!)

SEE YOU!

Them lists

Dear friends,

I’m so thrilled to see that Sister Sorrowsong has made it to THE TOP at the Soundvenue High 5 list! I’m so grateful for your votes!! THANK YOU!! It would be graite if you could take your time to vote for it again?

Also – this weekend Sister Sorrowsong was tested as a contender for BOTH lists at Danish national radio, P3: “Systemlisten” and the list for alternative music, Det Elektriske Barometer! This is HUGE! But – the finest moment was when wingman in Hymns from Nineveh, Jakob Brixen, made it to the TOP at Det Elektriske Barometer with his Mechanical Bird – thank you so much for your help :) !

So – now I would like to ask you, if you could take the time to put a heart next to Sister Sorrowsong (+4 other artists) at Det Elektriske Barometer (I of course highly recommend that you vote for Mechanical Bird as well!), and (if you haven’t already voted) at Systemlisten (+2 other artists) . I’m sorry to spam you with these things, but you decide these lists, people, so it’s up to you :) ! Deadline is tomorrow at noon.

Vote @ Det Elektriske Barometer:

P3 Systemlisten

Hi, friends,

once again, I will ask you to do a favor for Hymns from Nineveh: Yesterday, Sister Sorrowsong became a contender for the popular hit list at Danish national Radio, P3. It’s called Systemlisten, and all you have to do to help us, is clicking the tiny heart next to Sister Sorrowsong. This time, you don’t need to login or anything, just click the heart. Yeah.

A big hug and a thank you in advance,

Jonas the Hymnboy
