My dear readers.
Welcome to the new blog. In the future, http://www.hymns.dk will be THE place to go for information about what happens with Hymns from Nineveh. A big thank you to Søren K for helping me out.
Monday, Aske and I began recording the forthcoming Hymns from Nineveh-album! Once again, the action takes place in Pinligtavshed. It feels great finally to be doing it, and not just thinking and talking about it.
We plan on working until May. Right now, we really don’t know where it is going to end, but we have a feeling, a feeling which is hard to put into words. We’ve selected 5 songs to begin with, and when they’re done, well pick 5 more, and so on. Yesterday we recorded guitar on “Selma” and “So mournfull the elegy..”. Just to get started.
We’ll meet again on thursday, where the first guest-appearence will happen: David Blomqvist will come and put some folky doubblebass on Selma.
Three more things..
Three more shows added to the concert-calendar, including the first Faroe Islands show ever. Unfortunately, I will come alone and without the beautiful band of Hymnboys and -girl. But I’m looking forward to visit the lovely sheep-eating brothers and sisters of FO. Anyone, who have been there and could give some good advice on what to see?
Danish Music Mag. GAFFA picked up the story, that I’m recording and going to tour w/ Murder. Read about it here (in Danish). Also, Danish musicblog, Blaa Vinyl, writes nice things these days.
Finally, I can tell you, that a young, Danish documentarist is working on a Hymns from Nineveh-documentary. He will be following us around the next couple of months.
That was all for now. /Jonas
