The phalanx of Norwegian female jazz singers – although please do not put the word jazz singer on a gold scale – is a legend. Their figurehead for many years is Silje Nergaard.
She is one of the most successful European jazz singers. Already as a 16-year-old she performed in 1982 at the most famous festival of her homeland – Molde. Her musicians: the orphaned band of Jaco Pastorius. Then Pat Metheny discovered the singer and helped her get her first record deal. Since her debut album “Tell Me Where You’re Going,” with which she climbed to No. 7 in the Norwegian pop charts in 1990, it’s hard to imagine the genre-spanning Scandinavian music scene without her. She is one of the very few jazz protagonists who also enjoys great popularity in the pop world, because any kind of blinkers are foreign to her.
The Norwegian with the soft voice is known for her soulful perfectionism and for the fact that in her songs she also thinks seriously about life in our world.
