Concert with Jan Ingvar Toft, 22nd of January
Jan Ingvar Toft is in my opinion the best vocalist and storyteller in Norway - he is my absolute favourite! His presence and honesty makes a deep impact. I got to know him in 2006/07 when we worked together in Skyfri himmel at Rogaland Theatre.
I will make a guest appearance at his concert in Stavanger Concert House on the 22nd of January. I am really looking forward to it!
Stavanger Concert House 22nd of January, 1PM.

Rogaland Theatre
MOR: Eg konne vel tenkt meg å gå heile Den kinesiske mur
I am now working at Rogaland Theatre in the new play "MOR: Eg konne vel tenkt meg å gå heile Den kinesiske mur" by author Rønnaug Kleiva. The play is also starring the great actress Sally Nilsson. She is the mother and I am the daughter. A story that hopefully will touch and challenge our audience. The story is based on compositions from my two albums Let Go and RED. But it also includes a few completely new tracks. I have worked closely with Rønnaug Kleiva and translated the English lyrics into Norwegian.
