This week Malin Pettersen is bringing "Trouble Finding Words" to the Netherlands

With an eternal urge to explore and a modernized soundscape, Malin Pettersen is ready to show off a new side of herself. Pettersen has been in the studio with producer Martin Horntveth (Jaga Jazzist) and has come out with a soundscape that both sounds new and fresh, while also nodding to music from Malin’s childhood in the 90s.

The enthusiasm and commitment to the new song material shines through clearly and distinctly throughout the project. Trouble Finding Words is like meeting Malin for the first time. The musical references on the album are diverse, including a lot of 80s and 90s pop and R&B. Sonically, the album may resemble a mix of Kacey Musgraves, Solange and TLC, to give an impression of what the listener can expect.

Although the style is slightly different, Pettersen’s distinctive vocals are still easily recognizable. It’s no secret that she has one of Norway’s best voices, which she shows to her advantage on the new songs. The urge to explore and the excitement over new musical friends and acquaintances have led to a number of exciting collaborations on the album.
