Hollow By Feber: A Musical Journey From Emptiness To Hope

The warmth in Hollow, the focus track from the debut album, Can I Get Some Adult Supervision? by Norwegian folk duo Feber, clearly shines through, despite the heartbreak captured within the lyrics of the song. The recording is measured and balanced, wrapped in enchanting melodies.

With the voices of Helle Larsen, Inge Bremnes, and Bendik Brnne, Hollow sounds like a private conversation or touching exchange you’ve stumbled upon that can’t help but move you. The blend of pop’s catchiness with the soulful depth of folk and country, topped with a sprinkle of soul, makes for a sound that’s hard to pin down yet easy to fall in love with. The piano and guitar set a scene that’s both comforting and intriguing.

The lyrics don’t try too hard, yet they land right where they need to. “Where is your sense of humour?” The song begins with a line that feels like the start of a late-night conversation between old friends or perhaps lovers on the brink of something new or the end. It’s the simplicity and elegance of the words that catch you off guard, making you ponder the depth of what’s being said.

Hollow invites you to a moment of introspection about unspoken tensions and the effort one puts into something that might just be…hollow.

But Hollow isn’t just about the emptiness; it’s about the search, the yearning for something more, something deeper. It’s a musical exploration of the spaces we try to fill, the promises we seek, and the laughter we long for in the face of uncertainty. Feber has crafted not just a song but an experience, one that gently earns your attention, note by note, word by word.
