Bremnes, Kari
Ennu Her
North-oriented, European, open, personal, and melancholicthese are all terms that can be associated with Kari Bremnes' music. And always with a great closeness to the people and their fates. The multi-award-winning singer-songwriter, for whom individual genre categories were and still are too narrow, has been writing songs for almost forty years, released on nineteen solo albums. She currently has a larger audience than ever before, in her home country and far beyond. "Still here" is the Norwegian album title Ennu her in the German translation, and after many years of Kari Bremnes' release silence and in ouraccording to Kari"frightening and uncontrollable world," these words have a soothing ring. As soothing and beautiful as Kari's "crystal-clear yet warm-hearted vocals," as Audio said about the last album. Much has been written about the artist from Lofotenhere she speaks for herself and introduces us to her thoughts on the new album: "Six new songs. These stories say a lot about what's on my mind right now. They've been around for a while before they found their form and their music. It's been fun, nerve-wracking, and challenging to accompany them through all the twists, turns, setbacks, and progress. Now I feel it's time to get them out of the house."
