Artist
Björk Guðmundsdóttir, out of Reykjavík, Iceland. She was singing for the Sugarcubes by 21, then went solo with Debut (1993). 'Possibly Maybe' is from Post (1995), which hit No. 1 in Iceland and No. 2 in the UK and went platinum in the UK and US. It's an ambient-dub, trip-hop torch song she produced with Nellee Hooper, Marius de Vries on programming and Howie B mixing. As a single in October 1996 it reached No. 13 in the UK and topped the UK indie chart. She first imagined it as 'ambient country' with slide guitar, inspired by Chris Isaak's 'Wicked Game'. She won the Polar Music Prize in 2010 and has confirmed a new album for 2027.
