Susanne Sundfør has won the 2018 Phonofile Nordic Music Prize. She took home the award for her album Music for People in Trouble, beating out releases by Björk (Utopia), Fever Ray (Plunge), Yung Lean (Stranger), and more. Last year saw Sundfør cover Scott Walker’s song “On Your Own Again” for the BBC show “Newsnight.” Sundfør has been nominated for the Nordic Music Prize three times in total; this marks her first win. The 2017 winner was Jenny Hval, for her album Blood Bitch.
