JOSEFIN WINTHER 2023

Josefin Winther debuterer som forfatter og kommer med dobbelutgivelsen “Til Vega”. Denne består av en bok og en EP som har blitt skrevet og komponert underveis i prosessen med å få barn. I forbindelse med utgivelsen spiller hun en serie lanseringskonserter i november og desember. Se live for oversikt over konsertene. Boken kan kjøpes på nettbokhandlere eller bestilles som signert utgave her.

Før var du en gassballong. Du svevde rundt der oppe mellom skyene, mellom stjernene, og jeg holdt i en usynlig snor her nede. Du hadde fått et navn lenge før du var noe som helst. Du var, lenge før du var. Lett som en fjær, og helt uvirkelig for alle andre enn meg. Nå er du tung, og virkelig for alle. Så tung at ryggen min verker. Så tung at jeg har begynt å ta heisen. Så tung og at jeg vagger når jeg går.

Josefin Winther har siden sin debut i 2006 høstet stor anerkjennelse for sine liveopptredener. Allerede som 19-åring fikk hun platekontrakt og ga ut EP samme år. Winther har siden den gang gitt ut syv studioalbum, høstet strålende kritikker og gjort suksess som låtskriver, blant annet med Norges vinnerlåt i MGP 2014. Høsten 2019 debuterte hun med sitt første norskspråklige album, turnerte i Canada og Norge og fikk overveldende publikumsrespons på sine liveopptredener. Hun er kjent for sin gripende tilstedeværelse og kraft på scenen, hvor hun kan fange et hvert rom alene med gitaren. Signaturen er intense liveopptredener, hvor hun rett som det er deler fra sine tanker og følelser. Dette gjør hun like gjerne med et smil om munnen som med en tåre i øyekroken.

Josefin Winther

Josefin Winther is a Norwegian artist and songwriter born and raised in Bergen. She has released seven critically acclaimed albums, and played hundreds of shows in Northern Europe. The critics have compared her music to the likes of PJ Harvey and Patti Smith.

After having released music with English lyrics for over a decade, she made her debut in her native tongue, releasing the "[Uendelig lys. Uendelig mørke.]" in 2019. This album was also her first as producer. Both the album and the video has received critical acclaim. Since then she released three EPs and albums in the following years. The single "Fint å se deg her" was one of the top songs on Norwegian radio in 2020. Her latest album was released spring 2023, and is titled "If I were you".

Her songs have been playlisted on Norwegian national radio channels, and she has participated in several popular TV shows. She has also made her mark as a songwriter for other artists on Eurovision. In 2014 "Silent Storm" performed by her cousin Carl Espen won the Norwegian final, and came 8th in the international Eurovision final.

Winther plays both as a solo act and with musicians, and is featured on events in Norway and Europe continuously.
