A singer-songwriter whose thoughtful songs have appeared in films like 'Cold Mountain' and shows like 'Game of Thrones.'
If you're new to Teitur, 'All My Mistakes' gives you a good sense of his style. 'I Was Just Thinking' is the one that reached the most ears.
Teitur's music has a way of showing up where you might not expect it. His song 'I Was Just Thinking' from the 2003 album 'Poetry & Aeroplanes' became his most widely heard track, but you'll also find his recordings in the background of 'Cold Mountain' and 'Game of Thrones.' There's something about that quiet, thoughtful folk sound that works both on its own and as a subtle presence in other stories.
He started playing guitar at eleven in the Faroe Islands. After 'Poetry & Aeroplanes' in 2003, he kept releasing albums like 'Stay Under the Stars' and 'The Singer,' even while dealing with a royalty dispute with his former label and some political attention after performing at the Dalai Lama's birthday celebration. The focus has always stayed on his voice and guitar, whether he's performing solo or with a small group.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
