Editor's note

Kari Rueslatten's quiet, searching Norwegian folk

A singer-songwriter from Trondheim whose voice moves between classical, folk, and electronic textures.

If you want to hear her at her most direct, try 'All You Had In Me'. For something with a bit more of that Nordic folk feel, 'Sørgekåpe' is a good place to land.

Her music holds a specific, unflashy space in Norwegian songwriting. Songs like 'All You Had In Me' show how she builds atmosphere with a voice that feels both delicate and steady. She's kept at it for over a decade, putting out seven studio albums that critics have noticed, even if they sometimes called her too introspective.

She started with 'Mesmerized' in 2001 and later worked with producer Lars Horntveth on 'Syntheosis', which included the song 'Agatha' with lyrics by author Espen Holtan. Over the years she's performed with musicians like Bugge Wesseltoft and Imogen Heap, but her own records have stayed focused on that inward, layered sound.
