Ida Wenøe

Det kan I forvente

En livekoncert med Ida Wenøe er altid en helt nærværende og intens oplevelse, hvor hun leverer sine stærke melodier og tekster på en måde, som går helt ind under huden på lytteren. Det er grunden til at hun har vundet sig fans over hele verden uanset om hun optræder med sit band The Silver Cords eller solo. 
Hun sammenlignes ikke uden grund med ikoner som Leonard Cohen, Kate Bush, Tori Amos og Sufjan Stevens.

Ida har optrådt til en lang række skolekoncerter over hele Danmark sammen med strygergruppen Who Killed Bambi, og har derfor også opbygget erfaring i kommunikationen med børn i sin musik.

Hun har samtidig et ben i hele højskoletraditionen og elsker de danske fællessange, som hun har fortolket ved mange lejligheder. Hun er opvokset med den blå højskolesangbog som et fast indslag til familiefester osv. 

I 2015 indsang hun bla. en vidunderlig version af “Musens Sang” til serien “Dansk Musik i 500 år” på DR K.

“If we needed a powerful isolation hymn, this is it. And Ida Wenøe proves once again, that she is the queen of acoustic noir music.” (Good because Danish, May 31st 2021)

“Ida Wenøe har lavet en fortryllende musikvideo til den smukke single “Echoes”, der giver den organiske sang en ny dimension. Tjek den ud!”Bands of Tomorrow, May 27th 2021)

“This really is a powerful single, instantly contemporary sounding but also so classic – calling to mind some of the best vintage sounds I miss in the music of today. What’s not to love? Exceptionally well-crafted as always…hold on to tour seat.” Folk Radio UK (May 26th 2021)

“Ida Wenøe spiller klassisk folk med en vibe af blød 50’er rock. Hendes lyd er varm og opløftende, med stor kærlighed til det rå og upolerede. Hun er en sanger og sangskriver med lysende øjne, ærefrygt for Leonard Cohens legendariske sangtekster, og hun finder stor inspiration i filmskaberen David Lynches mørke film noir-univers i kultserien Twin Peaks.” (Denni Ian, Fine Spind, 3. oktober 2019)

“The songs on this album have depth and breadth. Her musicianship is obvious, with her multi-layered harmonies and the range of instruments she plays on the recording. She has her own sound, but she’s recognisably Scandinavian, with that ability to create optimistic and even pop songs out of loss and heartbreak.” (Penny Black Music, July 4th, 2019)

“I’ve written too much, but ‘The Things We Don’t Know Yet’ has made such an impact, with 9 tracks that are so distinct in their own right, individually crafted and textured musically, all with the most thoughtful of words to accompany it. Ida Wenøe is able to create such intensity and command such presence through her quiet, delicate vocals and guitar – with the sparsest of instrumental support.” (Nordic Music Review – Album of the week, April 30th 2019)

“This is destined to be a regular ‘go-to’ album for those moments when I need music to soothe or transport.
Delightful album, pretty well flawless” (Music News, Andy Snipper, April 12th 2019)

“I could go on and on about each of the songs on the record, about what I feel, what I see when I listen to them, but I leave that to each of you – go through “The Things We Don’t Know Yet” on your own and take what you need from it. Ida Wenøe gives you plenty of space and time in sharing herself and her music on this album.”
(Good because Danish, Arletta, April 15th 2019)

“She describes the album as about reminding people to take time to think and to know love properly, to look inside and realise that what you have may be worth more than what you’re chasing, to find the patience to be in and enjoy the moment instead of always seeking for the next one. Take a breath, soak it in and be touched by its magic.”
(Folk Radio UK, Mike Davies, April 11th 2019)
