The Northern Belle
Life, death, and a pile of 60-year-old letters provide the foundation for the upcoming The Northern Belle album, Bats in the Attic. Their fifth album will cement the bands status as frontrunners on the nordicana scene.
After having released two successful and well-received albums during the pandemic years, without being able to tour properly, the band members’ urge to play live was intense. This drive was cultivated in the studio, where they aimed to recreate the potency of their live shows.
The Northern Belle released their self-titled debut album in 2015. The sophomore album Blinding Blue Neon (2018) was nominated for a Spellemann award (Norwegian Grammy). We Wither, We Bloom (2020) was their first international release and received praise from heavyweights such as Popmatters, American Songwriter and NPR: All Songs Considered. A cover version of Sufjan Stevens’ “Chicago” from The Women in Me (2021), recorded with Darling West, Ida Jenshus, Louien, Malin Pettersen and Signe Marie Rustad, further amplified the buzz around the band, resulting in a magical performance on Lindmo, Norway’s biggest TV talk show.
The Northern Belle are Stine Andreassen (vocals, guitars), Bjørnar Ekse Brandseth (guitars, pedal steel), Johanne Flottorp (hardanger fiddle, harmonies), Trym Gjermundbo (drums), Ole-André Sjøgren (guitars, harmonies) and Marie Tveiten (guitars, harmonies).
