New Eyes

Denmark’s rising pop icon Nicklas Sahl made rapid progress through 2019. The success of his Platinum-certified hit ‘New Eyes’ boosted his profile with a succession of major awards. He won the Carl Neilsen Award (the country’s Ivor Novello equivalent) for Best Pop Composition as well as Best Danish Act at the MTV Europe Music Awards. He was also nominated for two Danish Music Awards (their answer to the Grammys) for Biggest Radio Hit and Best New Artist.

Now Nicklas Sahl looks to take his homeland success global in 2020, starting with his new track ‘There For You’.

Fusing the classic singer-songwriter feel of his early heroes, people like James Taylor and Paul Simon, with the current pop forward-thinkers like Bon Iver and Francis and the Lights, Sahl's music is timeless, with a twist. The Danish singer, songwriter and future pop star crafts emotional, almost illegally catchy pop pieces for the head and the heart.
