Emma Steinbakken
Since her breakthrough at the age of 15 in 2018, Emma Steinbakken has embarked on a journey that few Norwegian artists can match. Her debut single "Not Gonna Cry" has garnered over 25 million streams, she's topped the charts three times already, and in 2023, her highly anticipated debut album Home was finally released.
She has the most played song of the year on both radio and Spotify, won Artist of the Year at the P3 Gull Awards 2023, and took home both Song of the Year and Breakthrough Artist of the Year at the 2023 Spellemann Awards. Emma kicked off 2024 by performing for a sold-out Oslo Spektrum on March 2.
Her presence, captivating vocals, and storytelling ability have left audiences spellbound in front of both TV screens and concert stages across Norway in recent years. At the same time, Emma has explored various genres through collaborations with artists such as Alan Walker, Matoma, and Kamelen.
But even after growing into one of the country’s biggest pop stars, with solo shows at Oslo Spektrum, closeness and honesty remain central to Emma—both in life and in her songwriting. As Emma herself says, music is at its best when it creates bonds between people and a shared understanding of that lump in your stomach—whether it's a good or a bad feeling.
