about
Formed in the summer of 2012, Odd Hugo combine a distinctly Nordic energy with a mellow sound that’s warm and accessible. Twin vocals, strings and background brass embellishments combine to craft a unique experience. Theirs is a contemporary mix that manages to feel both familiar and fresh. Odd Hugo performed in this years showcase festival "Tallinn Music Week 2013" and got a lot of motivating comments/feedback from international delegates. The Line of Best Fit, a UK-based online music magazine: "A band that seem set to follow in the footsteps of their countrymen Ewert and the Two Dragons, Estonia five piece Odd Hugo offer an askew slant on indie folk, with tracks like ‘These Grey Fields’ carrying a sound that’s both familiar and new. Fans of Beirut will find something to enjoy from their brassed-up arrangements." Nils Bernstein, Matador Records: "I thought Odd Hugo were fantastic at Tallinn Music Week; of all the bands I saw, I think they probably have the most potential for success outside Estonia. The guys are incredibly talented, great players and songwriters." User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
