Elias B. Rønnenfelt, renowned as the frontman and lyricist of Iceage, is known for a sound of his own which is dreamy yet bombastic, fragile yet tough, continually evolving while staying rooted in his fearless artistry.
In October, the singer unveiled his debut solo album ‘Heavy Glory’, released via Escho, co-produced with Nis Bysted and featuring collaborators like Iceage’s Dan Kjær Nielsen, punk legend Peter Peter, and vocalists Joanne Robertson and Fauzia. The album boasts a dynamic and atmospheric sound and it is a raw, genre-defying exploration of love, chaos, and resilience, capturing the essence of growing up by diving headfirst into life, anchored by Rønnenfelt’s ever-present pen and guitar. Born during the uncertain post-pandemic haze of 2022, ‘Heavy Glory’ emerged as a collection of songs written and tested on the road in forests, chapels, and living rooms across Europe.
Elias Rønnenfelt is never afraid to examine the complexities of human connection, from desperate longing to tender surrender. With tracks like ‘Unarmed’ and ‘Stalker’ he presents a deeply personal yet universal narrative.
