Much like her music, the path that led
Ane Brun to It All Starts With One was peaceful, unhurried and full of unexpected, subtle surprises. It's taken her from her small Norwegian hometown of Molde, to Barcelona where she was a street performer, and across the US last year, supporting
Peter Gabriel and singing on his New Blood album. The adventures culminated with the making of her new album It All Starts With One, a platinum hit in Norway for which she just won their Grammy equivalent, the Spellemann award,
for best female artist.
The lead single, "
Do You Remember" features First Aid Kit, and the album also includes"Worship," a powerful duet with Jose Gonzalez.
Ane Brun has created an album full of struggles and the strength it takes to move forward. It All Starts With One is a revelatory work by an uncompromising artist at the height of her powers.
