Born in Copenhagen and currently based in Berlin, Agnes’ sparse chamber folk has spread through word-of-mouth across Europe and the U.S. The album ‘Philharmonic’ has been compared by critics to the likes of PJ Harvey, Joanna Newsom, and Roy Orbison.
After a whirlwind year, Anges Obel is happy to partner with Lomography for the “The Riverside Rumble.” Fans are invited to submit any analogue photo not digitally enhanced or manipulated that was inspired by Agnes’ song “Riverside.” Fans should upload their photos to their Lomohome, and submit them to the rumble.
