I have made a post preveusly without that much success, so I make another one.
I will recomend anyone with the taste for good atmospheric pop with touches of classical, jazz, electronica, folk, medeval and ballad forms to sheck her out. she have released two albums s/t from 2007 more classical and jazz influenced pop, she is realy good on the piano, great classical piano intros and coplex melodies, she is trainded in classical. the Brothel from 2010 (this album is quite progressive musicaly, but not quite rock, more well... can't quite think of what you can qualify it as, not verry accesable... acquires more then one listen). the music on this release is quite earthshattering, very emotional and grand. and I am not ashamed to say that im a fan, on the concert i attended ther was alot of males whom not only was there to see a cute girl on stage but also to listen to incredible music I think of fans of Kate Bush, Björk, Joni Mitchell will like her music. http://www.myspace.com/susannesundfoer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susanne_Sundf%C3%B8r http://www.susannesundfor.com http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=susanne+sundf%C3%B8r+live&aq=f here you can sheck for yourself are she prog or what Edited by aginor - June 03 2010 at 04:06 |

I see that Carole King is an influence as well.
Very nice recommendation... can't say if she's prog, but certainly writes good songs. Excellent acoustic/electric piano... will definitely listen to more of her work.

Aginor, I can't thank you enough for bringing Susanne to atention. If not for your efforts here at PA I'm pretty sure I would never have heard of her, and I wouldn't have had the oportunity to get The Brothel, which so far is my favorite album from this year.

Aginor, I've been looking to get her debut, but it appears to be not one, but two of them? As far as I can tell, Susanne Sundfør and Take One share the same tracklist minus one song, and are both priced the same... Which one should I get? Edited by Kotro - January 03 2011 at 15:11 |

this very good album more Piano drivven but full of classical influenced and twists and turns, but less progressive I might also recomend another Norwegian solo princess less prog but equally good, Marit Larsen she have two must have albums Under the Surface and the Chace if you like Roger Hodgson then she is close to that |

The Brothel is a modern art pop(or whatever)-classic, and the new single White Foxes sure sounds promising.
Surely one of the most interesting people making music nowadays. Experimental yet mainstream in a simillar way Radiohead is. But I'd skip the debut Kotro. Its just a singer/songwriter album. Not bad, but conventional.

Yeah, I got the debut along with The Brothel - not sorry, love it anyhow, but agree that follow-up is way better. Psyched about the new album as well (hopefully I'll get it this year - bit tight for cash with GAR at the doorstep), even though I much prefer the acoustic version of "White Foxes" to the album version.
By the way, has anyone heard her "Live at Salle Playel" album? Only heard a few samples on Amazon, sounds almost like prog-electronic to me.
