Danish pop star Oh Land was born Nanna Øland Fabricius on May 2, 1985 in Copenhagen. The daughter of musicians, she studied ballet seriously until a back injury ended any chance of a career in dance. Her first album, 2008’s Fauna, set her sonic template, danceable songs with electronica flourishes that reminding critics of artists like Lily Allen and Robyn. Her live shows featured elaborate choreography, and the attention she was drawing led to her 2010 breakthrough Oh Land. The album went top 5 in Denmark and did well in the U.S. hitting Number 24 on the alternative rock album chart. Two singles the Number 13 hit “White Nights” and the Number 4 smash “Speak Out Now”. She maintained that momentum for 2012’s Wish Bone, another top 5 album in Denmark, however 2014’s Earth Sick failed to draw much attention. She spent the next few years releasing singles, waiting until 2019 to drop her next LP, Family Tree, which became the third top 40 album of her career. She returned to the singles charts for the first time since “Speak Out Now” in 2020 with “Julefeber”.
