Herborg Torkilsdóttir

A singer/songwriter from The Faroe Islands - 18 beautiful islands in the middle of the North Atlantic Sea.  Herborg was born and raised in the Faroes. In 2001 Herborg moved to Denmark and lived there for 15 years.  In 2016 Herborg moved back home and she is currently living on a tiny island with a population of 200 people.  She states "I LOVE MY LIFE  HERE  and I love making my music".

During her years in Denmark Herborg worked as a prison guard;
"Today I work with kids -I want to be a positive figure in their early years, and try to prevent them from choosing the wrong path. Many of the prisoners I met were just lost souls with no one to guide them when growing up.  Doing what I do now, makes me feel like I might have a positive impact on someone’s life".

"I try to portray heartfelt, easy going music that is simple and hopefully will touch the listener, just as I am touched by the music I listen to. I grew up listening to Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson, Kate Wolfe etc
