Quote:
Rebekka Bakken, the Norwegian singer/songwriter. With her unique style, in which the influences of Joni Mitchell and Sidsel Endresen are discernable, her depth of feeling, and her stage presence, Bakken has assured herself a place in the front row of great contemporary jazz vocalists.
She grew up in a tiny Norwegian village not far from Oslo. Since Rebekka Bakken did not really consider it to be the navel of the world, she quickly set out into the wide world: first to New York, in 1994. Eight years later she finally returned to Europe, where among the metropolitan cities she discovered Vienna and chose to make it her home.
For "The Art of How To Fall" (2003), Deutscher Phonoverband gave her the coveted JazzAward, which is considered the equivalent of a Gold Record in the jazz industry. And for her following album "Is That You?" (2005), she was simply showered with praise, according to the German music magazine "Musikexpress": "Bakken opens up musical horizons ranging from the American Midwest into magically charged Scandinavian spiritual landscapes."
After a long break, Rebekka will be back with a new album "Morning Hours" out on October 23rd. For the first time she entrusted someone else with the production of her record. She worked in the US with the well-known producer Craig Street and musicians such as Marc Ribot, Glenn Patscha and many other american music heroes.
Insiders suggest that this is her best album up to date.
