    Биография

    Solveig Slettahjell is an award-winning Norwegian jazz singer who made her album debut in 2001 and known for her her Slow Motion Quintet, collaborations with among others Morten Qvenild, Tord Gustavsen and Knut Reiersrud. Over the last three years she has performed generally with her duo with drummer Pål Hausken as a singer and pianist. She has now formed a new jazz quartet with pianist Andreas Ulvo, bassplayer Trygve Waldemar Fiske and drummer Pål Hausken, their first album is expected late august 2030. Born on April 21, 1971, in Bærum, Norway, she studied at the Norwegian Academy of Music. Upon signing a recording deal with the Curling Legs label, she made her solo album debut in 2001 with Slow Motion Orchestra. Recorded live in concert on May 22, 2001, in Oslo, the album is titled after her band (later renamed the Slow Motion Quintet), which was originally comprised of Morten Qvenild (piano), Sjur Miljeteig (trumpet), Mats Eilertsen (bass), and Per Oddvar Johansen (drums). Like her full-length debut, the follow-up album Silver (2004) was an English-language effort comprised of jazz standards as well as original material. It was a breakout album for Slettahjell, earning a Spellemannsprisen Award in 2005 for Jazz Album of the Year. She went on to make two more albums ( Good Rain (2006 ) and Tarpan Seasons ( 2009 ) ) with Slow Motion before embarking on a series of collaborative albums and also exploring various solo-projects, 13 albums so far.
