Kwella, Morten Ramsboel,Mads Behrentzen,Palle Hjort,Jacob Mygind m.fl.Apart from that...I am a singer, composer/songwriter, vocal coach and mom. married to a wonderful man, Gregory Boyd, who is also a musician. I have been around many different styles in my life. Not because I cannot make up my mind, but because I love great music no matter the style. I love singing jazz, blues, rock, country, pop,soul etc but within the past years I have come to find out that what I love the most is singing jazz. I am a very spontaneous and intuitive person and it goes well with jazz. I like a certain degree of unpredictibility and alot of room to play with my creativity and spontaneity when I sing. I like to take chances and go where my feelings lead me when I sing a song. I did a cd with old danish standards by danish composer Kai Normann Andersen a few years back. One of the songs "man binder os på mund og hånd" which is on the myspace, player made it to danish national radio DR/P4 on regular rotation. So did one of my own songs "I miss you" .Currently I perform as a background vocalist as well as a soloist with The 10 person orchestra The Big Gumbo Show-a New Orleans music experience, which is getting repeat performances in Norway and Denmark and is a GREAT band by the way, consisting of some of the finest musicians. Also I just started a new jazz group together with Uffe Steen, Ole Visby, Henrik Møller and Gregory Boyd. We just did a live recording of some of our songs, and you can hear them here on the site ( prelude to a kiss, Black Coffee and China eyes which is composed by Katrine Madsen, an excellent danish jazz singer and has lyrics written by the just as excellent danish songwriter Helle Hansen.
