Norwegian Music - Discover New Music & Unsigned Talent

Watch: Mona & Maria ‘Babyflowers’

Beautiful folk pop to start the Sunday off from Mona & Maria.

Uplifting Norwegian indie pop with lots of whistles and big hooks. Definitely brings a smile to my face. Check out here.

A Beyonce cover by Ane Brun & Linnea Olsson

I’m not Beyonce’s biggest fan but now that I hear this reworking by Ane Brun, it does make me appreciate ‘Halo’ more. Just slightly.

Tooji had an ill-fated spell representing Norway for Eurovision last year. It was a brave song that sadly didn’t fare too well in the Final. Anyway, this track should set him on a new musical path that he deserves. Its a pop song that is simply epic in scale. Check out here.

First Listen: Margaret Berger ‘Human Race’

The lady who did Norway proud at Eurovision this year is back with a new slice of electropop. It’s not as edgy as ‘I Feed You My Love‘, but it’s ok.

New Music: Kristin Minde

This will stick in your head all day. Norwegian twee pop with a 90’s British-indie vibe. Check out here.

New Music: Mona & Maria

Continuing with the fantastic talent emerging from Norway, just when you think this track couldn’t get darker, a magnificent chorus appears and lifts you up to a slight sense of euphoria. Such a special folk sound. Check out here.

The happiest song you’ll hear all week…

It’s sung in Italian, but it’s by Norwegian establishment Erlend Øye. So cute, so happy, so camp…

New Music: Emilie Nicolas

If you’re into your Oh Land! then chances are you’ll like Emilie Nicolas. This Norwegian talent blends sombre and airy pop with electro and a little jazz. Check out here.
