Elin Furubotn

The songs of Norwegian singer-songwriter Elin Furobotn are so down to earth that even her dreams (“Ein Drøm”) seem perfectly real. And so it should come as no surprise that all pieces on her first international album Heilt Nye Vei should be marked by utmost clarity and immediacy. Somewhere in between pop, folk and a touch of jazz, her music and lyrics feel refreshingly airy: The soul dances, the heart smiles and life and love are turning into experiences as long-lived and impressive as Furobotn’s sounds.
