Biography
Skive, Denmark (2006 – present)
Mads Langer (Skive, Denmark, 1984) is a Danish singer and singer-songwriter, who became internationally known for his cover of “You’re Not Alone” by the British band Olive. While that song is cheerful, his own songs are frequently typified as emotional guitar ballads, because many of them are in a minor scale and have a melancholic feel to them.
He has explained that even when he tries to write an uplifting song, it often ends up being a sad song, even though he does consider himself to be an optimist rather than an emotional person and says about himself that he is not that sensitive but rather a very tough guy. Langer also writes more powerful songs and performs various songs on piano. His third studio album Behold will be released on May 9, 2011.
Langer writes the majority of his repertoire alone, but also collaborates with among others Marcus Winther-John , Tim Christensen , Daniel Ahearn , Edie Kuhnle , and Justin Hawkins . Tim Christensen has contributed to several songs with backing vocals, guitar and bass on Langer’s earlier albums, and Justin Hawkins sings backing vocals on Langer’s upcoming album. He has announced that he will also be working with several artists and producers from the United States, including Ryan Tedder . About his approach to music, Langer says: “I’m very inspired of the way Keith Jarrett just lets his hands run out of control and create big poetic moments out of improvisation.
