Electropop songs with reflection and sensitivity
Selina Gin is one of Denmark's most expressive singers, songwriters and producers.
Her solo career began in 2019 with the live band The Iconics, opening for The National at the Royal Arena in Copenhagen, and from 2021 that career really took off. She was nominated for the Steppeulven award as Vocalist of the Year, played for full houses at Loppen in Copenhagen, was included on radio playlists and given 5-star reviews at the SPOT Festival.
Her debut album Patiently Waving (2022), produced with Søren Buhl Lassen, had Danish music journalists at GAFFA magazine, and dailies Jyllands-Posten and Politiken, reaching for the superlatives, and her singles, such as Young & Alive and ’Cause We Had It All, were often heard on Radio Denmark’s P6 Beat. This debut proved the depth of Selina Gin's format as singer, songwriter and producer.
The scope of her musical expression has gained energy with Selina Gin's move to the country, and motherhood. Perspectives broaden, and quitting the city has distanced her tendencies and expectations both physically and mentally. On the most recent album I Memorize Your Face, ‘Cause it Changes all the Time (2025), Selina Gin profits from her new stance in life to write electropop songs with the same reflection and sensitivity as on her debut album, but with new sources of inspiration, adding a more playful, disarming switch between fun and seriousness.
I Memorize Your Face, ‘Cause it Changes all the Time is crowned with laurels from reviewers across the media, and songs like Oh My Heart and Hurts Like a Mother have regular spots on Danish radio.
Besides her work as a solo artist, Selina Gin has toured and recorded with Peter Sommer and written music for the musical Nordkraft and Stine Pilgaard's theatre show Hvorfor laver vi ikke et band? (Why Don't We start a Band?).
At Tønder Festival she will be playing with her band, The Iconics.
