Mads Langer

A recognised singer/songwriter in his house nation of Denmark and beyond, the multi-instrumentalist Mads Langer was created in 1984 in the northern city of Skive. A brooding, heart-on-sleeve performer in the vein of Jeff Buckley and Thom Yorke, Langer discovered his art by dividing his early years between learning the piano and playing inside a Trend Against the device covers music group. On leaving college, he shifted to the administrative centre to be able to attend the Royal Danish Academy of Music. Soon afterward he authorized a cope with Copenhagen Information, the same label that could continue to greatly help the dance-pop work Alphabeat find achievement in old age. While his 2006 debut Attention Make sure you offered modestly, the important impresario Sat Bisla got notice and guaranteed a few of Langer’s 1st international live times, eventually persuading him to go to NY. After spending a yr in the U.S. playing market events on both East and Western coasts, Langer made a decision to go back to Skive. Following that he embarked on the self-financed acoustic tour of European countries, which not merely helped to bolster and consolidate his pursuing but also gave him an opportunity to display fresh songs throughout a especially prolific amount of composition. Compared to his debut, Langer’s 2009 self-titled second record was a refined affair both with regards to the material and its own production. The soft, contemplative “Fact-fiction” became his initial Danish Best 20 strike when it had been released as an individual from the record. That same calendar year, he documented a slow-burning, acoustic guitar-driven cover of Olive’s mid-’90s dance common “YOU ARE NOT By itself.” This became his initial record to market well beyond Denmark and it charted in Italy, Switzerland, holland, and Germany over another year or two. Its longevity over the Western european charts was credited partly to its addition on Behold, his 2011 London-recorded debut for Sony Music. 2012 brought Langer his first Danish number 1 one, “Overgir mig Langsomt,” and in 2013 the euphoric, digital pop-tinged In These Waters reached the same placement on the nationwide record charts.
