Elinborg was born and raised in the small town of Gøta in the Faroe Islands. From a young age, music and songwriting became her biggest passion. Deeply influenced by the nature and surroundings of where she grew up, she describes her music as “dark electro pop.” In 2016 she won ‘best live act of the year’ at the Faroese Music Awards. In May 2018 the young Faroese artist released her single ‘’Brimið’’, which was recently featured in the Norwegian Netflix TV Series ‘’Ragnarok.’’
Last year, Elinborg released her third EP called ‘VERA’, which translates from Faroese as ‘being’. The EP includes five songs, all written by herself in her native language. Produced by her and her sister Eivør the songs were co-produced by Tróndur Bogason, Hallur Jonson and Norwegian producer, drummer and member of Highasakite, Trond Bersu. With her melancholic and crystal-clear voice floating through soundscapes of dark synths and electronic beats, Elinborg draws us into her emotional world, singing about unattainable love and deep longing. Elinborg is currently working on her upcoming single with well-known artist Greta Svabo Bech and Fred Ruddick. The single will be released in the summer of 2023, a few weeks before Castlefest.
