Shares ‘Bullet’ video
UK and Ireland tour dates start this week
Damien Jurado support dates announced

“Ruthlessly emotive to the point it should come with a warning label” The Line of Best Fit
“So intimate at times, it feels like she’s right there in the room with you” Ja Ja Ja Music
“With each passing listen, we find ourselves falling deeper and deeper with Siv Jakobsen”Daytrotter for Paste Magazine

Ahead of her return to the UK and Ireland this week, Siv Jakobsen has shared the video for‘Bullet’. Siv will support Damien Jurado, Bryde, Jack in Water, Jo Rose and Daudi Matsiko this month, before heading out with Ciaran Lavery on his European tour in May.

The video documents Siv’s time on the road last year and is beautifully shot by Jørgen Nordby

Siv’s music is beautifully mellow, much like diary-entries – filled with unfiltered thoughts and reflections. With strong references to Laura Marling and Ane Brun, listening to her music is like being a fly on the wall while she sings you her secrets. Her most recent batch of songs were created in her old 6×7 “bed with a door” room in Brooklyn, NY. The record, “The Lingering”, was released in May 2015, and has since been incredibly well received.

A captivating live performer and inviting storyteller, Siv has had the honour of supporting SOAKand Highasakite, played sessions for Daytrotter & Sofar Sounds, and has received praise from the likes of The Line Of Best Fit, Paste Magazine, Earmilk, The 405 and Clash.
Siv has also been playlisted on Spotify UK (nearly 800,000 streams and counting) and has also had support from BBC 6 Music and Amazing Radio.
