Initially making her foray into the Norwegian music scene as half of the teen pop duo M2M, Spellemannprisen-winning songwriter Marit Larsen went on to become a regular on Norwegian Top 40 radio with sweet, breezy alt-rock singles like "Don't Save Me" and "Under the Surface." Her solo debut, 2006's award-winning Under the Surface, sold double platinum in Norway and began a string of consecutive Top Five albums in her homeland. ~ Marcy Donelson
