Nive Nielsen & The Deer Children release My Mother’s Name, their first album in ten years. Following Nive Sings (2012) and Feet First (2015), the Nuuk-born Greenlandic-Inuit musician returns with a multi-layered album moving between modern folk, singer-songwriting and subtle electronic textures.
At its heart are questions of identity, socialisation and home. The title My Mother’s Name refers to the self as something we shape through family and heritage. Nive Nielsen, who has worked for years across Greenland, Europe, music, film and international art projects, weaves personal perspectives into a broader social context.
Recorded with her band and longtime collaborator John Parish in Denmark, Belgium and Bristol, the album blends acoustic songwriting with subtle electronic interludes, plus violins, flutes, guitars and traditional Greenlandic drums. Nive Nielsen’s voice relies on nuance, resulting in a warm, richly detailed soundscape.
