Info for Mirage
LILJA's debut album "Marble" (2020) garnered top reviews from Dagsavisen, and got featured year's best albums list from the same newspaper, and in Klassekampen. On "Mirage", which will be released in April, LILJA has collaborated with four artists from different parts of the world: Sara Marielle Gaup from Sápmi, Celio de Carvalho from Brazil, Zakaria Houaoura from Morocco and Ashraf Sharif Khan from Pakistan. These meetings are fused together in LILJA's music, creating a kind of mirage - mirage - of the world, seen from Oddrun Lilja's perspective.
