musical find of the day

hanne hukkelberg

her site describes her music as "Windswept eccentric pop meets dusty jazz?"

sounds like a great description...

her record company site says:

Hanne Hukkelberg has spent the last two years riding her bike around Oslo collecting sounds and impressions. She has taken these elements to the studio where she and producer Kåre Chr. Vestrheim have been pasting it all together.

hey - a bike riding musician has to be cool..

i've seen comparisons to bjork and nellie mckay, but the wacky/oddball instrumentation puts me to mind of brian wilson at his most experimental...

great voice - check it out
