 With ‘Stay’, Norwegian indie pop ‘star’ Frokedal picks up the fiddle and re-interprets traditional Norwegian folk music as pop songs. Along with a bunch of befriended musicians (her ‘Familien’), she explores a brighter, more densely populated fjord landscape, where folk-pop hooks and singalong rock melt seamlessly together with melodic hymns and asymmetric rhythms inspired by local music traditions.
 Frokedal is daring us to believe that happiness may not be an unfulfilled potential somewhere else, but that it may exist right here, right now. It is an album portraying love and pain, roots and community.
 On her previous album, ‘Flora’, she and her band (Frokedal & Familien) were the main support for Teenage Fanclub’s European tour. The Independent named her One To Watch, The Sunday Times chose her as their Breaking Act, and the German Visions magazine wrote enthusiastically: “The Next Big Thing? Almost!”
