âGorgeous Scandi Folk Chanteuseâ â Howard Byrom, The Lancashire Guardian

Born in a small Norwegian town, Silje spent her first years running around the forest, beating imaginary woodland robbers with sticks and singing stories to herself.

Now 23, she is an artist and songwriter with a BA in music and plenty of songs in her bag. She also has lots of experience as a live musician and has gigged in Norway, UK and Spain. She has performed live on Spanish national radio, and on Channel M music show City Centre Social.

Silje's music is a heady tincture of rock, pop and folk, spiced with Norwegian traditional folk, jazz, punk and arabic scales. Her poetic lyrics are wrapped in quirky but hummable melodies and refreshingly original arrangements.

Surprising and intriguing songs are performed with a
compelling sincerity. This is a noisy, funny, heart-wrenching and beautiful experience - come and listen!

âAn extremely engaging performance. The audience was truly captivated. (â¦) a highly capable performer on a number of instruments, as well as an accomplished and highly expressive vocalist.â - Mat Flynn, Honey Records
