THE CABIN PROJECT     
KIRA SKOV/MARIE FISKER

The two singers / composers Kira Skov and Marie Fisker have joined forces in a new constellation named The Cabin Project.
As both well-established solo artists with each their own productions this new joint project is set for release spring 2014.
In the spring of 2013 they went to Canada's deep forests to isolate themselves in a cabin for 9 days with Oliver Hoiness (guitar) and Ned Ferm (sax). Here they recorded an album in collaboration with the legendary engineer and producer Mark Howard, best known for his 23 -year partnership with Daniel Lanois (Bob Dylan, Marianne Faithfull, Iggy Pop, Neil Young ...). The result is a deep, raw and soulful album. Roots of the classical songwriting like L. Cohen infused by playfulness and a unique futuristic dare.

¨ It has been a very wonderful and special adventure to make this record. Mark's recording methods and inspiration, the wild nature around us, our impulsive development in the process and exchange of ideas as well as the live performing ... it's been very intense, challenging and a wonderful experience! The maze of sometimes not being able to separate the two voices while recording worked as a very inspiring mirror and as a unifying melting pot! ¨

In 2007, Kira and Marie's appeared in a Danish national TV programe about Johnny Cash. Since then   the idea to one day record an album together was fostered. They both felt an obvious urge to explore the two voice potentials in tangling and incorporate a unit sound which seems to open up a completely different angle and direction. The guitarist / composer Oliver Hoiness has with his unique talent influenced the process and the overall universe of sound a great deal. Inspired by hip hop, free improvisation, African highlife to indie singer- song writer style he is fortunately hard to pin down as a musician with many colours. Ned Ferm (US) is another excellent soloist in the project. A multi-instrumentalist on flute, violin, keyboard, drums, etc. A musician with a very original character and nerve. Ned is a highly skilled Jazz musician as well as a bluegrass song writer and musician of free improvisation.
