Kim Skovbye is a composer, songwriter and poet. Kim began to play guitar at an early age, he has grown into a multi instrumentalist that plays numerous instruments such as violin, bouzouki, mandolin, flutes, cello, keyboards and the celtic harp, that has become his chosen instrument. In 1988 Kim was offered several filmprojects and these projects were the beginning of a close relationship with the syntheziser musician Klaus Schønning. The result of their partnership can be heard on the albums ”Scandinavia” and ”Heartland”, where Kim had the possibility of using his skills on a variety of unusual string instruments. Another two instrumental albums are released the following years, ”Aftermath”, that features the singer Annisette from Savage Rose and ”Wayfarer”, that is solely an acoustic album with two Celtic harps. On this album Kim plays with the German harpplayer Gabrielle Reger. In 1994 Kim begins working with Ida Kleeman. She was the lead singer of the famous Danish band ”Bifrost”. In 1995 ”Mountains of Fire” is released. It is a single CD in support of children caught in the war in ex-Jugoslavia. ”Heart`s Friend” is the title of their next album, that is released in 1996. The harp is the instrument of fairytales and in 1997 Kim releases the CD ”Here and Back Again”. Being the subtitle of Tolkien`s book The Hobitt, the album is of course inspired by the book with the same title. Visit www.kimskovbye.dk for further information.
