Lindy-Fay Hella

The Norwegian collective Lindy-Fay Hella (Wardruna) & Dei Farne (Roy Ole Førland) is releasing their second full album "Islet" via By Norse on the 22nd of March, 2024. The beautiful auditory experience is the next in line of many successful releases, such as her 2nd album "Hildring" in 2021 and "Seafarer" was released by Lindy-Fay Hella solo in 2019. The music for this album was mostly written during the Corona times. Roy Ole and Lindy-Fay were sitting in their homes, isolated like most people were at the time, just sending ideas to each other which eventually turned out to be a whole album. They noticed that the sound of it all had a kind of loneliness and coldness to it that they wanted to keep. They emerged with an album that paints a vivid musical canvas of our collective journey through unprecedented times. As the world stood still, she found solace in crafting melodies that encapsulate the emotions of isolation. The beauty of "Islet" lies in the exchange of musical ideas during this unique period. Collaborating remotely, we discovered a novel way of working that felt strangely fitting for the times – a fusion of vulnerability and innovation. Vocals, synths, and programming became our pillars, forming the backbone of a sound that is both intimate and expansive.
