Musical career

[edit]

Vorkinn comes from the Lesja municipality. In 2018 she took part in the TV show Idol.[1] After graduating from secondary school, she attended the pop music branch of Trøndertun folkehøgskole. She then studied music production in Lillehammer for a year. After graduating in 2020, she received a recording contract with Warner Music Norway.[2][3] For the film Børning 3, she contributed the English-language song "Gonna Be Alright". However, she mostly sings in her dialect, which comes from the Gudbrandsdalen region.[4][1]

Vorkinn co-wrote the song How About Mars, with which the singer Anna Jæger competed at the Melodi Grand Prix 2020.[5] She was also involved as a songwriter on the songs Bare når det regner and Smilet i dit eget speil, which were released as singles by Chris Holsten.[6] Smilet i ditt eget speil was awarded “Song of the Year” at the two Norwegian music awards P3 Gull and Spellemannprisen for the music year 2021.[7][8] She was also nominated in the newcomer category at P3 Gull. With the song Ett minutt, released at the beginning of 2021, she was able to place herself in the Norwegian single charts for the first time in 2022.[4][9] The song was used in the NRK series Rådebank.[2] She was nominated in the "Artist of the Year" category at the P3 Gull music award in 2022 and 2023.[10]
