Info for Slowly, Slowly.

Siril Malmedal Hauge composes music that touches and captures, with honest lyrics most people can recognize themselves in. She has already managed to become one of the country's most in demand vocalists through several projects. In 2019, she received the award "Jazz Talent of The Year" at Moldejazz, and the same year she released her debut album "Uncharted Territory", receiving very good reviews in the press.

She is now out with her second album in her own name. "Slowly, slowly" hits the body immediately, and urges the senses deeper into the moment. It describes a movement, a feeling. A repetitive encouragement to feel the big in the small moments that are around us all the time. The roar in your chest when you let go of the handlebars on the bike downhill, the moss from the forest floor that feels soft against your back, and the finding of a flashing treasure in the quay stones. Time stops - just a little. For a few seconds. "Slowly, slowly" asks you to rest in one of the most important things you have: the ability to bend time, and make the short moments bigger.
