Early crooked
Tone grew up in Ålesund and sang from the time she could talk, and started playing the piano at the age of five. She sang in choirs, played in bands and had her first paid gig at the age of twelve.
– Music has always been a big and important part of my life. Playing music, whether you listen to it or perform it yourself, can provide beautiful and powerful experiences.
From folk high school to album
She spent a year at a folk high school to cultivate her music – at Toneheim. The year was followed by education in rhythmic vocals and classical piano at the Music Conservatory in Kristiansand, as well as courses in Complete Singing Technique.
Since then, Tone has sung with a wide variety of pop and jazz bands, collaborated with a variety of different musicians, and performed at festivals and clubs both at home and abroad. As a result of several years of work, in 2022 she released her first album Moments , where she collected moments, moods, places, and stories.
– The album is made with love for the big and small moments in life. It was incredibly nice and educational to create both music and lyrics for this album – and not least to collaborate with so many talented and inspiring people.
