Tonje Unstad will undoubtedly stand out from the other young songwriters making their debuts this year. This 25-year old from the north of Norway shows exceptional promise with her special and distinctive lyrics.

"when you're

poetry, top secret, clandestine 

writing page up and page down 

in my diary

you're the one I walk right past 

you are – unattainable"

Her single "Uoppnåelig" (Unattainable), already very popular on the radio, heralds an exciting and musically varied album. The CD "Sett" (Seen) offers appealing pop music mixed with reggae, jazz and Latino styles, all wrapped in a down-to-earth, acoustic production by KKV's Erik Hillestad. She writes all her own lyrics and songs.
