Candy for your iPod: Karoline Hausted

by Allan Jenkins on June 1, 2009

Karoline Hausted, a good friend of mine – my partner’s daughter, in fact -- just released her second CD, and her first solo CD. You can find it on iTunes.karo

And you should.. you are going to love it.

Take what I say with a grain of salt – how can I be purely objective? – but her lyrics are pure and dreamy and erudite, her singing is rich, the arrangements are lush, and the mixing --- just to a touch.

And at this point, you are saying “Ok, he’s not being objective.”

Trust me. It’s that good. Radio Denmark has already copped some of it for programs  – months before the CD was out of production -- and the Danish National Arts Foundation awarded a major grant on first listen. It’s that good.

Look her up on iTunes. Karoline Hausted. Tap Tap Tap is a nice song to start on for a sample…

Thanks, she's great! Bought a few tracks, I like "Spooked."

Glad to hear it, Denise.

Lee and I listened to it several times today driving from Seattle to Seaside.

Bloody brilliant music! Haunting, lyrical, evocative, a bedroom voice… I am sold! Cannot play it enough at the moment – high rotation.

Fantastic stuff. Best I've heard this year so far…

I love the CD. And yes, my iPod is very happy… as are my ears, my spirit, and my mind. Thanks Allan.
