HiFi+, Jason Kennedy
"What strikes you initially is the vigour and tactility of the music that this trio produces, it's clearly made by young, entusiastic musicians with considerable ability and an innate understanding of how their constributions fit together as a whole. It's one of those bands that makes you think that the trio is the perfect size for a musical ensemble, it has a wide tonal range and lots of scope for dynamic variation but is small enough for each musician to be fully aware of what the others are doing." and gived the album 5 out of 5 stars.

Dagsavisen, Espen Løkeland-Stai
"One of the best and most active in contemporary Norwegian jazz (...) It's more cohesive than on the previous album, whether it be Hauges fine melodies - she can distinguish herself with a distinct sense of captivating melodies, evident in a song like 'The wildflowers on the moon', og they allow the wildness to bloom" (22.02.24)

Ville Blomster
Our album "Ville Blomster" was released 2nd of February on the Norwegian label Hubro. We are overwhelmed by the response!
​
"Ville blomster" means wild flowers and refers to both the wild, uncontrolled abd improvised sides of the music, and the written, beautiful melodies inspired by the nature around us.
​
The album was recorded in Athletic Sound in Halden in May 2023, and all songs are written by Liv, except "Du og jeg, Baby" which is a free improvisation.

Live from St. Hanshaugen
Our first album was recorded the week we started playing together, in Liv's living room back home in Oslo. It's an honest recording of the very start of this band, and for us it's a great memory of that first periode when we all met and felt that this project would be something special for all of us.
