Her sixth full-length & third internationally distributed release, 'Me and Armini', reconciles the divergent musical directions of Emiliana Torrini's previous work, which tended sometimes towards reflective folk rock and / or electronic minimalism.

Prolific Icelandic singer-songwriter Emiliana Torrini writes spare, unashamedly confessional pop songs with clever lyrics and a wistfully dejected but never morose outlook on life. Her sixth full-length & third internationally distributed release, 'Me and Armini', reconciles the divergent musical directions of her previous work, which tended sometimes towards reflective folk rock and sometimes towards electronic minimalism. Emiliana's vocalizing recalls Bjork at both her most mannered & her most accessible, and her instrumental accompaniment combines hushed acoustic fingerpicking with languid electronic soundscapes.

"Torrini is comfortable with sparse guitars or loopy electronics, and she comes up with disarming melodies..."
