Teitur is a singer-songwriter from the Faroe Islands. He has toured extensively throughout Europe and the United States since releasing his major label debut “Poetry & Aeroplanes”. In 2007 and 2009 Teitur was named Best Male Artist at the Danish MTV Awards and in 2008 he opened the main stage for Radiohead at the Roskilde Festival. Teitur has also shared the stage with Rufus Wainwright, Suzanne Vega, KT Tunstall, John Mayer, Ane Brun and Aimee Mann. Although considered firmly within the singer-songwriter genre, the last few years have seen Teitur's music grow in a vaster, more mature and experimental direction, including his collaboration with Nico Muhly. Teitur's latest album, The Singer, was released worldwide in the spring of 2008.
