I do recommend listening to her to anyone who hasn't heard of her yet.

I stumbled upon Eivør's music a few years ago when i was creating a playlist for a vacation (with my father and siblings) to Tórshavn.

I have been taking Icelandic classes lately, and so I put on some of her music in the car to see if my Faroese skills had also improved as a consequence. My girlfriend turned to me and asked "do you know Eivør"? Apparently they used to hang out together at, the now closed bar. "Sirkus" in Reykjavik. That particular bar had a spinoff branch in Tórshavn which still exists, and in which i managed to get drunk with a Michelin star chef and participate a Nordic Council Eurovision party.

I think I managed to tie that story up rather nicely...
