Erika Angell and The Obsession With Her Voice

Interview by Frédéric Cardin

Additional Information

Singer-songwriter Erika Angell is one half of the Thus Owls duo, formed with her husband Simon Angell. Through this ultra-Montréal indie band, she has helped create a body of work of the highest calibre, culminating in the duo’s most recent opus, Who Would Hold You If The Sky Betrayed Us? recognized world-wide as a high achievement, even an authentic masterpiece. The only problem was that the artist felt the need to return to a part of herself that she had left behind in her native Sweden, before the Montreal adventure and Thus Owls. It’s this part that she rediscovers on her very first solo album, The Obsession With Her Voice, to be released on 8 March on the Constellation label. A more experimental universe, which I have described as Dark Cinematic Cyberpunk, with the agreement of the artist. See and hear everything she has to say on this next chapter of her career in the following interview.

The Obsession With Her Voice is released on March 8, 2024 and will benefit from a launch at Ausgang Plaza, on March 12.
