ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Thea Glenton Raknes is, first and foremost, a storyteller. She always has been, with a childhood spent between her mother’s “hippie flat in Oslo” –frequented by painters, poets and other budding bohèmes –and summers on her father’s boat crewed by Swedish prog rockers. Up until recently, she was perhaps even more comfortable professing ‘storyteller’ than ‘songwriter’, having skipped formal music education and embracing a free-spirited, no-holds-barred approach to songwriting –unaware of, and somewhat unconcerned with, the boundaries to both industry and artistry.
When her second album “Ikaros “was released in 2018, Rolling Stone Magazine highlighted it as one of 10 albums to stream, and NME wrote:
“Having quietly released one of 2018’s most impressive debuts with ‘Ikaros’, Thea & The Wild offer the kind of fist-clenching, abandon-free arena power-pop that Florence + The Machine‘s latest effort was lacking in. Imagine the open-road arena anthemics of Fleetwood Mac with the slick R&B edge of early Haim, and throw in the synthy showboating of Chvrches and you’ve got a rough sense of what this dark horse has to offer.” – NME
