Christine is already about to become a well-known name in Norwegian popular music, and now her first album is released.

She has taken part in writing the songs and the lyrics. 'I can vouch for the results one hundred per cent,' Christine contently states. She doesn't think she belongs to the somewhat famous 'Bergen wave' (i.e. Sondre Lerche, Röyksopp, etc.). 'My mode of expression is different,' Christine declares.
Almost two years ago, Christine's father died. It was then she wrote her first lyrics to the song 'Fly Away'. 'It's farewell message to my father, and very personal and close,' Christine says. She thinks it's scary to share her thoughts with the whole world, but now she often writes about such things. She has written the lyrics to five of the songs on her debut album. 'I sing about what life is about: Loss, love and human relations. Things that everybody can relate to'.

In addition to being a unique singing talent, Christine is an ordinary 18-year-old. She's now in her last year at high school. Her hobbies are skiing, cars, jazz ballet and, of course, singing. Christine admits that her singing has occupied most of her time during the last year. She has worked a lot on her debut album and she receives lessons in singing and piano playing.
'No matter what happens next, everything has been incredibly fun and informative so far'.

Her expectations to her debut album are fittingly modest: 'I hope for the best, which is to be able to make a living of my singing. To work full time with music is my big dream,' Christine reveals and calls herself a conditional optimist. According to those who know her, the 18-year-old is a girl with guts. And according to everyone who listens to her singing, Christine Guldbrandsen is the new great voice from Bergen. (http://www.christine.bz/en.php)
