Kari Rueslåtten has one of the finest voices in alternative Nordic folk-pop, and is the queen of melancholia.
The new recording, titled “Silence is the Only Sound”, reaffirms Rueslåtten’s ability to deliver incredible vocals laden with dark-edged melancholy. “The new music evokes elements from my rural Norwegian heritage” she explains, “and incorporates memories of folk tales and music passed on to me from my father”.
On her live show Kari Rueslåtten presents her new album Silence Is The Only Sound, but also other songs from her 20 year long solo carrier – including the her brand new English version of the title track of her first solo album – Spellbound.
