Plàsi + Axel Flóvent
Torsdag, 3 februari 2022
19.00 - 23.00, Hus 7

Two of Scandinavia’s most prominent indie-folk artists Plàsi & Axel Flóvent have put
their bands together and present an exclusive co-headline tour in Europe in Spring
2022. After both signing to Nettwerk the two met and found their shared vision of
creating something bigger together through their synergies. The show will travel through
8 countries and 12 dates in a manner that we haven’t seen the two artists perform in
earlier.

Plàsi
Swedish-Greek singer/songwriter Plàsi has since his appearance supported names
such as Henry Jamison, José González, and Hollow Coves around Europe. With the
latest recordings, he has decided to use his new personal escape as the setting for his
most ambitious project yet - the sophomore full-length release Foreign Sea (out
February 4). He introduced himself on the 2016 EP 'Now & Then', followed by his
full-length debut, 'People', in 2018. After signing to Nettwerk, he built his own mythos
with the 'Mystery' EP, with the title track being praised as “an acoustic folk gem” by The
Line of Best Fit and “a sensationally moving folk piece” by Earmilk. The co-headline tour
in February will follow just after the release of his new album.

Axel Flóvent
Born and raised in the Northern fishing village of Húsavík, singer-songwriter Axel
Flóvent has recently supported artists such as The Paper Kites, Juníus Meyvant in
Europe and Radical Face in North America. Axel recorded his first EP ‘Forest Fires’
back in 2015, in Iceland where the songs were written under the influence of everything
from Bon Iver to Bombay Bicycle Club. It yielded an international phenomenon in the
form of the title track, generating over 40 million streams. At 19 years old, he moved to
Amsterdam. He admits, "I was supposed to be in a music mecca, but I never left the
apartment." So, he traded Amsterdam for the seaside town of Brighton when Axel felt a
strong pull to return to Iceland, and chose to plant roots in the capital Reykjavík. After all
his traveling he finished writing his debut album ‘You Stay by the Sea’ about the search
for a place to feel at peace. Tapping into the DIY spirit of his earliest recordings, but with
a sense of refinement and newfound wisdom. ‘You Stay by the Sea’ will be released on
Nettwerk Records on January 15th 2021.
