Son Of Fortune

Son Of Fortune is a captivating musical project birthed from the fertile creative mind of Faroese singer-songwriter and guitarist Benjamin Petersen. The artist's work represents a unique blend of genres, skillfully weaving the traditional sounds of his Nordic roots with contemporary rock, blues, and a hint of the mystic. With evocative lyrics and an atmospheric approach to composition, Son Of Fortune has successfully crafted an auditory landscape that is both haunting and enthralling.

Since its inception, Son Of Fortune has emerged as a distinctive voice in the music scene, capturing the attention of audiences with releases like "Alone and Forsaken" and "Voodoo Pop." The project's music often explores themes of fate, nature, and the human experience, as heard in deeply resonant tracks such as "Not My Time" and "Is It Essential." The Faroese title "Fólkaskrímsl" underscores the artist’s connection to native culture and language, enriching the auditory tapestry with folkloric elements. Petersen continues to evolve Son Of Fortune's sound, effortlessly balancing between the echoes of land and lore with the ever-expanding horizons of modern music.
