Hurrah Hurrah - Out now!

About Me


Jacob Faurholt has with, the now disbanded Sweetie Pie Wilbur, released the debut-album “Queen of Hope” on Quartermain Records in 2005. On “Queen of Hope” you’ll hear an under-acted, spontaneous and intimate pop with little mistakes and disharmonies.
Jacob Faurholt & Sweetie Pie Wilbur were number 1 on the Danish alternative chart “Det Elektriske Barometer” with the song “Alone with You” from “Queen of Hope” for three weeks. The album was greeted with fine reviews.
Besides important showcases i.e. SPOT11 & Popkomm 2005 Jacob Faurholt & Sweetie Pie Wilbur played a long line of concerts at several of Denmark’s bigger venues. That included support for CocoRosie, Grizzly Bear and Efterklang
Jacob´s second album "Hurrah Hurrah" was released November 12th 2007 on Quartermain Records. It was recorded with Kristian Westergård (ex-Defectors) and has guest vocals by Taxi Taxi! The result is naked, crispy and at times loud.
Besides his two full length albums, Jacob has also released several ep´s (cd-r) on the Danish label BSBTA.
