Floriography by Moddi

In 2006, a friend of mine invited me to record a demo in his bedroom studio. The demo, although printed in only 20 copies, found its way to radio stations and festivals. I spent all 2009 writing songs, meeting people, rehearsing and thinking. In September, I brought my band to Reykjavik, where we started recording what would become my debut album, together with producer Valgeir Sigurdsson.

After having gathered ideas for more than five years, fourteen days in his Greenhouse was too little, and we kept on working on the album at home in Oslo for many months. February the 8th 2010, my debut album 'Floriography' was released in Norway on Propeller Recordings. It was nominated for two Norwegian Grammies (Spellemannsprisen) the year after.

Songwriter and storyteller from the North. I believe in a better world and that music can help us get there.
