ELIN’S MUSIC CAREER GETS BACK ON TRACK<\/h3>\n

In 2010 Elin released her album “Yndisl\u00f8g” together with the acoustic band Ad Libitum, when all the copyright issues finally had been resolved. The album sold 1,300 copies already the first two years after the release, which is no mean feat in a small country of around 50,000 people. Read more HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In the following years Elin’s music career suddenly took off again. The release of the album kicked off a demand for live performances, and Elin has performed at many concerts and festivals since then, including the G! festival in G\u00f8ta, Summarfestivalurin in Klaksv\u00edk, Voxbotn in T\u00f3rshavn, \u00d3lavs\u00f8kukonsertir in T\u00f3rshavn, Summart\u00f3nar at different venues in the Faroe Islands, in churches, at the venue Reinsar\u00edi\u00f0 in T\u00f3rshavn, and the venue T\u00f8ting in G\u00f8ta, at private parties, at wedding and at funerals as well as at living room concerts (mostly for tourists) in the summer. She usually sings and plays her own songs, some published and some not published before, some of the classical NALJA songs, some cover songs from the Yndisl\u00f8g album. Sometimes she performs alone, sometimes accompanied by two other musicians playing acoustic guitar and bass.<\/p>\n

ELIN & K\u00c1RI \/ NALJA MEET AGAIN ON STAGE<\/h3>\n

Elin & K\u00e1ri appeared on stage several times \u2013 including two times at the big concerts at the Faroese national holiday, \u00d3lavs\u00f8ka (Sct. Olavs Wake), which takes place every year before crowds of thousands of people.<\/p>\n

In 2012 Elin & K\u00e1ri performed together again on stage for the first time in 20 years. They were asked by the arrangers of the Faroe Pride if they were willing to perform together again \u2013 and thereby support gay rights and the gay community in the Faroes. Of course, they said yes, and then NALJA was recreated! They had a great performance with a full band in front of an audience of several thousands of people.<\/p>\n
