Global top hits and a power outage of a performance hit the Big Stage when MØ takes over the Jelling Music Festival last weekend in May 2022.
In a decade, Karen Marie Ørsted has been catapulted from the Danish underground punk scene to world fame. Even though the dance floor-filling, poetic pop has shifted in focus, the wildness from punk still permeates MØ’s stage show.
Since the breakthrough in 2012, MØ has hammered her status firmly through legendary performances at Roskilde Festival, Glastonbury and Coachella and visits to American late night television, but first and foremost through her already impressive music catalog.
With mega hits like ‘Don’t Wanna Dance’, ‘Blur’, ‘Final Song’ and ‘Kamikaze’, in addition to the Major Lazer collaborations ‘Cold Water’ with Justin Bieber and of course ‘Lean On’, MØ stands as a shining lighthouse in Danish music.
MØ has used the shadowy sides of the breakthrough as a driving force to explore new paths in her musical landscape, which has led her to release her third studio album ‘Motordrome’ on 28th January 2022. The first single precursors ‘Live to Survive’, ‘Kindness’, ‘Brad Pitt’ and ‘Goosebumps’ testify to a darker text universe that flirts with the occult, and a sound that draws more on the musical roots of punk and grunge.
There is a guarantee of both goosebumps and euphoria when MØ – finally – enters one of the country’s largest festival stages in Jelling last weekend in May 2022!
MØ is the epitome of an artist who manages to maintain his artistic roots despite an international breakthrough. Her ability to speak to the heart at once and set off a party testifies to a world star of carats. We have dreamed of presenting her for many years, and it is a great pleasure that it now finally succeeds
Lars Charlie Mortensen – Festival Director
The concert will be one of MØ’s very few festival concerts on Danish soil in 2022.
