Marit Larsen: The Enchanting Songstress
Norwegian singer-songwriter Marit Larsen embarked on her musical journey as part of the duo M2M alongside Marion Raven. Their debut single, "Don't Say You Love Me," propelled them to international fame in 1999. However, after two successful albums, the duo parted ways in 2002.
Undeterred by this setback, Marit embarked on a solo career and released her debut album, "Under the Surface," in 2006. The album garnered critical acclaim and spawned the hit single "Don't Save Me."
Marit's sophomore album, "The Chase," followed in 2008 and continued to showcase her remarkable songwriting skills. The album included the poignant ballad "If a Song Could Get Me You," which became a global anthem for unrequited love.
Throughout her career, Marit has faced challenges with vocal health, requiring surgery to remove a polyp from her vocal cords in 2010. Despite this setback, she persevered and returned to the stage with an unwavering determination.
In 2014, Marit released "When the Morning Comes," which marked a departure from her traditional sound with a more experimental and electronic approach. The album was met with mixed reviews, but demonstrated her artistic growth and willingness to push boundaries.
Marit's latest album, "Joni Was Right," was released in 2020 and paid homage to the iconic singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell. The album featured intimate acoustic performances and showcased Marit's enduring love for music and storytelling.
