Our Take

Luxury And Waste, the latest offering from Norwegian jazz vocalist Torun Eriksen, is a whimsical journey through the conflicting themes of excess and frivolity. Eriksen's sultry, ethereal vocals float effortlessly over lush, intricate arrangements that blend elements of jazz, pop, and folk in a truly unique way.

From the opening track "Northern Nights," with its haunting melodies and evocative lyrics, to the closing notes of the dreamy "Breaking the Chains," Luxury And Waste is a masterclass in musical storytelling. Eriksen's lyrics touch on themes of love, loss, and self-discovery, all delivered with a playful, almost cheeky, twist.

The album's production is top-notch, with each instrument and vocal line weaving seamlessly together to create a rich tapestry of sound. Eriksen's band provides the perfect backdrop for her vocals, with standout performances from the talented musicians that accompany her.

Standout tracks include the infectiously catchy "Golden Years," with its irresistible groove and infectious chorus, as well as the introspective "Empty Rooms," which showcases Eriksen's emotive vocal range.

Overall, Luxury And Waste is a delightful and captivating listen that will appeal to fans of jazz, pop, and everything in between. Torun Eriksen has solidified her place as a true talent in the music industry with this album, and I can't wait to see what she has in store next.
