PEG Talks 2 Iceland Singer Songwriter BRYNJA
With a background in acoustic folk music, Icelandic singer/songwriter Brynja is paving her own road in the music industry. She combines dreamy vocals and honest lyrics with elements of R&B, pop and Nordic folk to create a unique sound.
At a young age Brynja’s parents noticed she had a musical ear, and started her on violin, piano, and clarinet. It wasn’t until shortly after her twentieth birthday that she found her own way into music while working with a street theatre group in Norway. There she learned how to play the guitar and fell in love - a combo that sparked her interest in music and led to her writing songs.
During her bachelor studies in contemporary dancing, Brynja continued making music, recorded her self-titled debut EP, shot music videos and went touring. After her dance studies she moved to The Netherlands to study Audio Engineering, where she focused on producing and recording her own music.
In her early songwriting days, Brynja was influenced by Emiliana Torrini, Sufjan Stevens, Bon Iver, Nick Drake, Björk and Sigurrós. Later on, Brynja discovered R&B and artists such as Solange, Frank Ocean, and Lauryn Hill, whose influence can be heard in her most recent and upcoming releases.
Currently, Brynja lives in The Netherlands where she is working on her solo project. She's a part of a musical collective, European Hype, which she shares a studio with in The Hague.
