Silje Nergaard // Byscenen
On her new album Tomorrow We`ll Figure Out the Rest, Silje has composed a collection of melodic songs inspired by classic jazz standards. Songs about life and love – universal themes that we can all relate to. In 2025, she will embark on an extensive European tour with some of Norway's leading jazz musicians.
“This was my parents' pop music, music they sang and danced to. I grew up with this music and it became an important inspiration for me when I started writing my own songs. Jazz has always been at the heart of everything I have created. But I have always tried to create my own personal twist.”
Silje's band with Helge Lien on piano, Jarle Vespestad on drums and Finn Guttormsen on bass has played an important role throughout her musical career. They have traveled with her around the world and been part of many concerts and recordings. They are all unique instrumentalists, and bring a completely personal touch to her music with their playfulness, warmth and sensitivity. Silje describes her musicians as a family: "We know each other so well and are so well-matched - it's like we breathe from the same lung".
This is a unique musical collaboration, where Silje and her band create an intimate and warm jazz atmosphere. The concerts are like medicine for the heart and give the audience a feeling that time stands still for a moment.
