Agnes Obel returns with her fifth studio album

"The Meaning of Flowers", is the title of Agnes Obel's new album, due out on September 18, 2026. Described as "an album that extends the Danish artist's singular universe, now based in Berlin", the record unfolds twelve tracks, including the striking single "Laymelli". With this release, the singer and musician continues "her exploration of music that defies genres, at the crossroads of classical, chamber-pop and experimentation", according to the material. 

With The Meaning of Flowers, Agnes Obel once again showcases her wide-ranging talents. A writer, composer, multi-instrumentalist and producer, Obel has written, recorded, arranged and produced the entire album herself in her Berlin studio. She sings, naturally, sometimes deliberately transposed in pitch, but she also plays piano, keyboards and synthesizers. For the rest, the artist invited a host of musicians to join her on violin, viola, cello, bass, lap steel, harmonium, flute, saxophone, percussion and backing vocals.

To experience "The Meaning of Flowers" live in Paris, head to the iconic Olympia on September 23, 2027. The artist is expected to use the occasion to perform several of her past hits on stage, drawn from her four previous albums.
