  • Bio

    Despite her tender age, Maria, who was discovered at fifteen while playing her first ever gig in a small fishing community in the arctic north of Norway, is now established as one of the country's leading singer/songwriters. So how would she describe the difference between the Maria Solheim of today, and the teenager who made her debut on 2001's "Barefoot"? - Experience has given me a sense of self-confidence, which has spurred me to take some chances. By all means, Will There Be Spring is not a "difficult" record, but it pushes the envelope a bit. A little bit more psychedelica, a little bit more madness. The fact that the album was recorded on analog equipment had a big influence on the final result, it has become a simpler and more direct record than it would have been had it been done digitally. Will there be spring does not represent a radical new direction for the critically acclaimed Maria Solheim, but rather a continuation and an expansion of her collaboration with producer Emil Nikolaisen, who since their work together on "Frail" has had tremendous international success with his own band, Serena-Maneesh, The record, like her three previous efforts, is being released by Kirkelig Kulturverksted (KKV), a record label with countless awards to its merit. – No need to swap labels when you're allowed total artistic freedom over everything, including the sleeve design!, she laughs. Will There Be Spring represents a major step forward for one of Europes most exciting young artists and will add new converts to Maria Solheim's loyal fanbase world wide. Maria has performed concerts in Germany, Great Britain, China, Thailand, Japan, The United States, Austria, Luxembourg and Switzerland, as well as in Scandinavia, including a "royal command" - performance at the christening of princess Ingrid, heiress to the Norwegian throne. Last fall she published her first book, Den lille kaosboken (The little book of chaos) ...... .. .. .. .. .. ....>

    The four CD's "Barefoot" (2001), "Behind closed doors"(2002) "Frail" (2004) and "will there be spring" (2006) are four very different albums when it comes to sound. "Frail" and "will there be spring" is recorded in an analouge studio and have a more rough sound then the two first albums. The two first albums are more pop and rock oriented, and are recorded in a digital studio. .... .. width="425" height="350">...... .. .. .. .. .. ....> .. .. .. .. .. .. ..

    It's good to see that you're gigging again. Come to Florida where there is no "Jule forestilinger i emning". Lots of warm stages to play on here! Hmm, hope my translation was correct.
