About Me



Despite the crazy, humorous elements that spice the output of Severnaya, its music generally produces in the listener a sense of soaring through soundscapes that are as chilly, serious and remote as the barren islands from which the project drew its name. Meaning “northern” in Russian, Eggers adopted the name from “Severnaya Zemlya” (lit. “Northern Land”) - a group of islands in the icy Kara Sea, off the Siberian coast.
