Fräulein – 7. marts 2026 kl. 22.00-23.00 – Ungdomshuset – Dansesalen – Concert
**************English below****************
Anna, Emil og Jeppe mødte hinanden i Odense for 8 år siden og fandt ud af at de var skabt for hinanden. Den kreative energi i deres nye venskab blev dog først rigtigt forløst på en efterfølgende sommerhustur, der endte med at definere deres fremtid.
Her transformeredes deres entrepenante ego´er fra at løbe i hver sin retning som tre vilde heste til at løbe sammen i et spand.
De gik fra misundelse til respekt for hinanden og omdirigerede deres respektive styrker til fælleskabet og i løbet af kort tid skrev de 10 sange.
Med grænserne frigjort blev det efterfølgende til 100 sange i løbet af et år.
Bandet bestående af de tre gode venner har vundet konkurrencer, som både Jelling Festival og Tinderbox var afsender på, hvor både jury og publikum gav majoriteten af stemmerne til trioen.
Deres debutalbum rystede et par radiohits ud, specielt singlen ”Hvad vil du ha´ ”, og derefter skrev bandet VM– sangen
”Vi gør det hele igen” til kvindelandsholdet i fodbold.
Bandet har været ude live en del gange, og specielt deres optræden på SPOT festivalen samt support for bl.a. Love Shop samt sommerfestivaller som Smukfest, Wonderfestiwall, Jelling, Midtfyn etc. har åbnet flere døre for dem.
Trioen starter et nyt forløb i 2026 med udgivelsen af nye sange på flere EP´er, der bindes sammen til et album.
Anna – vokal, guitar
Anna voksede op i Esbjerg med fars fascination af amerikanske hot rod biler med rockabilly og Lynyrd Skynyrd på anlægget. En koncert med Police i Århus var dog et turning point i livet, og samme dag købte hun en guitar og gik i gang med drømmene. Anna har også været trommeslager i et punkband og havde som ret ung grønt hår, nitter og hanekam, hvor hun fik gjort oprør mod den hyggelige borgerlige opvækst.
Inspirationerne tæller: Joni Mitchell, Kate Bush, Jack Antonoff, Taylor Swift, Lorde, Anne Linnet, Linda Perry, Portishead, Bruce Springsteen, The Cure, Fleetwood Mac.
Emil – bas, guitar, keyboards
Voksede som Anna også op i en teenagetid med Green Day, hvis kombination af energi og melodi satte sine spor.
”Min far tog mig med til en Kashmir koncert da jeg var 11 år, og det blæste mig helt væk”. Voksede op i et skolelærerhjem, og blev sendt til klaver i O. klasse hos disciplinære Lilian. Kastede sig senere over sin fars nyindkøbte guitar, som åbenbarede en ny retning for Emil. Han vandt som 16-årig – i bedste crowdsurfende stil – titlen som bedste guitarist under en Emergenza musikkonkurrence, siden blev det dog bassen Emil for alvor endte med at kaste sin kærlighed over. Emil spiller under påvirkning af:
Royal Blood, The Big Bang, D-A-D, Kashmir, Taylor Swift,Katy Perry, Simon & Garfunkel, Bonnie Light Horseman, Goldfish, Green Day, Diana Krall, Chet Baker, Beatles.
Fräulein Jeppe – trommer
Jeppe er som Emil opvokset i Odense et sted i tonernes verden, og han var på stikkerne før han kunne gå. Som 10 årig begyndte hjertet for alvor at banke for trommerne, da han startede til undervisning. Forældrene brugte kort efter deres begrænsede SU på et trommesæt, og så var kursen lagt. Efter mødet med Emil og Anna for 8 år siden, er beatet banket på plads, ikke mindst under pandemien, hvor det blev op til 5 timers dagligt trommespil, hvor bandet ikke kunne mødes og spille sammen.
Inspirationer : Fleetwood Mac, Radiohead, Stanley Donwood, Michael Strunge, Kate Bush, Future Islands, Patti Smith, Bruce Springsteen, David Bowie, Prince.
Navnet Fräulein :
Udtales : frøjlajn
Trods umlaut og formindskelses-endelsen i navnet er bandet pæredanske.
De var inviteret til møder på flere pladeselskaber, og havde endnu ikke fundet på et bandnavn, da en in-coming tekstbesked fra en veninde i Tyskland blev italesat på vej op ad trapperne til et af møderne.
Bonus info om Fräulein :
”Vi er alle sammen nogle kæmpe nørder som elsker at spille mærkelige brætspil og playstation – og ikke mindst er vi helt vilde med Star Wars. En anden fælles interesse i bandet er god kaffe.”
***************************************
Anna, Emil and Jeppe met each other in Odense eight years ago and quickly realised they were made for one another. However, the creative energy in their new friendship was only truly unleashed during a subsequent trip to a summer house, which ended up defining their future. Here, their entrepreneurial egos, once running in separate directions like three wild horses, began to pull together as a single team.
They moved from envy to respect for one another, channelling their respective strengths into the collective, and in a short time, they wrote ten songs together. With boundaries removed, this soon grew to 100 songs within a year.
The band, consisting of these three close friends, has won competitions hosted by both Jelling Festival and Tinderbox, where the trio received the majority of votes from both the jury and the audience.
Their debut album produced a couple of radio hits, especially the single “Hvad vil du ha’”, and afterwards the band wrote the World Cup song “Vi gør det hele igen” for the women’s national football team.
The band has performed live extensively, and their appearance at the SPOT Festival as well as supporting acts such as Love Shop and summer festivals including Smukfest, Wonderfestiwall, Jelling, Midtfyn, etc., have opened many doors for them.
In 2026, the trio embarks on a new journey with the release of new songs across several EPs, which will be tied together into an album.
Anna – vocals, guitar
Anna grew up in Esbjerg, with a father fascinated by American hot rod cars, rockabilly, and Lynyrd Skynyrd blasting through the speakers. However, a Police concert in Aarhus became a turning point, and that very day she bought a guitar and began chasing her dreams. Anna has also played drums in a punk band and, as a youngster, sported green hair, studs, and a mohawk as a way to rebel against her cosy, bourgeois upbringing.
Inspirations include: Joni Mitchell, Kate Bush, Jack Antonoff, Taylor Swift, Lorde, Anne Linnet, Linda Perry, Portishead, Bruce Springsteen, The Cure, Fleetwood Mac.
Emil – bass, guitar, keyboards
Like Anna, Emil grew up in his teenage years listening to Green Day, whose blend of energy and melody left a mark. “My dad took me to a Kashmir concert when I was 11, and it absolutely blew me away.” Raised in a teacher’s household, he was sent to piano lessons in his first school year with the strict Lilian. Later, he picked up his dad’s newly bought guitar, which opened a whole new direction for him. At 16, Emil won the title of best guitarist at an Emergenza music competition, crowd surfing and all, but it was the bass guitar that ultimately captured his heart.
Emil’s influences: Royal Blood, The Big Bang, D-A-D, Kashmir, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Simon & Garfunkel, Bonnie Light Horseman, Goldfish, Green Day, Diana Krall, Chet Baker, Beatles.
Fräulein Jeppe – drums
Like Emil, Jeppe grew up in Odense, surrounded by music, and was already drumming before he could walk. At ten, his passion for drums really took off when he started lessons. Shortly after, his parents spent their limited student finances on a drum kit, setting his path. Since meeting Emil and Anna eight years ago, he has become the heartbeat of the band, especially during the pandemic, when he practised up to five hours daily while the band couldn’t meet and play together.
Inspirations: Fleetwood Mac, Radiohead, Stanley Donwood, Michael Strunge, Kate Bush, Future Islands, Patti Smith, Bruce Springsteen, David Bowie, Prince.
The name Fräulein:
Pronounced: “frøjlajn”
Despite the umlaut and diminutive ending, the band is thoroughly Danish. They had been invited to meetings with several record labels and had yet to find a band name when an incoming text from a friend in Germany was read aloud as they climbed the stairs to one of the meetings.
Bonus info about Fräulein:
“We’re all massive nerds who love playing quirky board games and PlayStation – and, not least, we’re absolutely mad about Star Wars. Another shared interest in the band is good coffee.”
