Frk. Jacobsen (Anja Jacobsen) has for many years worked actively as a composer, singer, and drummer on the experimental Danish and European music scene in projects such as Selvhenter and Valby Vokalgruppe, as well as as a solo artist. 

She is also involved in countless collaborations, e.g. often with performance artist Sara Hamming, who is also the dramaturg of the album’s lyrics.

Behind the new album “I HAVEN” lies three years of work, a process which also involves the staged concert ‘I/O – a concert in 9 scenes’, which was performed during the Copenhagen Jazz Festival in 2021. During the concert, the text was projected as under/ over-texts; both as lines that were sung or as director’s notes that were read by the audience during instrumental passages.

“I think it’s exciting to work with the border between the arts, here between music, theatre, literature and performance. It is the music that is the main focus, but what does it do to the listener’s experience that it suddenly says e.g. ‘Glllogl, a big bunch of worms, creeping in from the left’ while we’re playing?”, says Anja Jacobsen.
