Captivating Norwegian bands and artists: a new doorway to Nordic music

From Norway, the land of majestic fjords and mystical auroras, we present uniquely individual artists who captivate the global music scene.

From the exhilarating pop of the legendary band a-ha to Alan Walker’s cutting-edge electronica and AURORA’s crystalline vocals, their work is marked by the Nordic blend of delicate sensibility and innovative sound.

We’ll guide you into a dazzling musical world—shining like the lights of the far north—featuring the experimental jazz of Jaga Jazzist and the folk-rock rich in ethnic hues by Gåte.
