Fine’s real name is Fine Glindvad Jensen and it is almost impossible to find her without knowing that. But it doesn’t matter, because with her debut album ‘Rocky Top Ballads’, the Danish singer belongs to the musical genre that you would have ‘discovered’ in 2008 after three hours down the rabbit hole on YouTube. Back then, you would have slipped from “alternative” to Kat Frankie to “sad indie” and finally turned off your PC at three o’clock in the morning, satisfied but a little melancholy. This kind of music can only be found by specialists.
Of course, Fine’s dreamy sound doesn’t just evoke vague memories of the millennium. No, Fine makes her trademark clear straight away in the video for “Days Incomplete”: cloudy, but not unclear. Melancholic, but not cheesy. A bit like Lykke Li singing a daughter song in the nineties, only slower and maybe with a pinch of Slowdive. Or maybe it just needs a few more skyscrapers in the morning fog? In the end, everyone has to find the truth in Big Muzzy for themselves.
