An award-winning star in Norway, Silje Nergaard kicked her jazz-pop career into gear with the release of the 7-inch single "One of These Mornings/My Funny Valentine" back in 1984. Over a 30-year career she's moved effortlessly between soft-focus, downtempo lounge and more buoyant, pop-inspired jazz, flitting between Norwegian and English lyrics. Her recordings bathe and luxuriate in brushed drums, mellowed-out vocals, heart-swelling piano and flourishes of brass. There's a pinch of Norah Jones and a dash of Joni Mitchell—but it's still 100% Silje Nergaard.
