Ea Wiimh is a 24-year-old Danish composer and lyricist. She grew up in the Danish folk music environment, drawing much inspiration for her compositions. She started out mainly as a songwriter in her teenage years, but an internship in the Danish Royal Theater's orchestra changed her focus to composition, with drama, storytelling, and lyrics as the key components. During her degree, she has released two full-length albums, ‘Bevegende Stilstand’ and ‘Vrdåb,’ with the Danish label ExoPAC. Additionally, she has participated in the Franz Liszt in the Academy of Music in Prague.
