Rikke Egholm Ravn - You're still the one (Shania Twain)

GLIMTVIS

The duo consists of Rasmus Pedersen and Rikke Egholm Ravn, who both have a history of standing behind the leadsinger microphone, in different orchestras. A duo that is a partnership and a deep friendship

A partnership and friendship, which at first was about common love for some special coversongs - but which over time, turned out to be a songwriting-fellowship with a common starting point and which,  so far in the writing proces has taken us places, none of us have been before . Far away from the sizzling guitars of rock - away from pop-jazzed ballads - and to a universe, that is characterized by a completely direct and naked and self-delivering rhetoric, a focus on the simple melody, that can stand without full-bodied productions. And a completely honest collaboration about some of the emotions, that we believe people of our own age can recognize.

GLIMTVIS write songs that balances in the schizophrenic borderland between shameless pop, honest country and the unpolished voice of rock, and which tell personal stories of life and love, as we try to navigate in adulthood.

GLIMTVIS:
"We make a virtue out of trying to put into words what the story of the songs is - and let people get really close, when we play them.
In musical form, we want to share the parts of adulthood, that we typically do not share on Facebook and Instagram - the part of the divorce that just hurts; the insecurity of trying to find a new “one and only” , being the last one left at the bar and going home alone - even if you were standing there in the spotlight earlier ; to make peace with yourself, not to spend so much energy on hating one's ex, falling in love or lacking that same feeling. To feel out of place in what is supposed to be adult life”

All wrapped up in the good tune and love of the good hookline.

There is a guarantee of beautiful sound and reflection, but also an energy, that goes far beyond what you would expect from a duo and two very experienced live performers.
