In 2007 Synje Norland released her debut album "Skipping Stones“ on Norland Music, a label she set up with her father. It was a truly collaborative effort that united the talent and passion of the family and many talented friends.

The commitment paid off: In 2011 Synje Norland was nominated for the official "German Songwriter Award".

Soon after she released her second album "To the other side" and is currently working on her third, which is going to be a collaboration with the Cellist Michael Becker, who is also accompanying her at her live shows.

"As she stood there on the stage of Nikolaisaal foyers with closed eyes, denouncing the injustice, she reminded us of the lead singer of the Cranberries, Dolores O'Riordan, who, with her song 'Zombie' had achieved similar effects. Also a comparison with Alanis Morisette Synje Norland would withstand safely. Sounds like velvet, smoky and dark, sometimes fading away, almost spoken, only to be re-pointed as pinpricks."

"The complex compositions of the singer and guitarist didn't keep the emotions of the audience in a calm state for too long. Again and again she changed her ton. Her cellist, switching from angry to vulnerable, from folk to chamber music accents. Her voice like a tree: first one looked fascinated at the heights. But her voice also reached deep into the depths of the earth."
