I'm obsessed with wool.

I just really enjoy humming.

I always have a lot of hand cream.

Adele's one of my favourite artists!

Pop music is what touches me the most.

Teamwork is the best kind of work, really.

I'm very close with my family and friends.

It kills my vibe when cats don't wanna cuddle!

I try to make explosive and catchy music, haha.

I'm from a small town called Alesund in Norway.

I hate working out; it's the worst thing to do.

I appreciate hearing different stories. It inspires me.

My parents are both music lovers; they are not musicians.

I find it easier to write about stuff that is frustrating.

Feminism has always been a theme that I'm very interested in.

I love Robyn. 'Dancing on My Own' is one of my favourite songs.

I always start with writing vocal melodies before writing lyrics.

My goal is to write catchy songs that make people feel something.

Teachers have been some of the most important people in my career.

I love shifting between being super cute and aggressive. It's funny.

I have sunglasses; that is very important when you're out traveling.

I'm very close to my family; they're the most important people to me.

My mum is the biggest Joni Mitchell fan, and my dad loves Neil Young.

My favorite thing to do is to get something good out of something bad.

I decided to move to Bergen because I like the music environment there.

I'm so glad I didn't go into the big-music industry until I was 19 or 20.

My mum loves jazz, and together we listen to loads of Chet Baker back home.

I like to be dramatic in my music because that's when it gets to your heart.

There are two places where I can completely relax: in nature and by the piano.

Festival line-ups should have all types of music. It's part of cultural growth.

It's a lot to take in to have won something as prestigious as BBC Music Sound Of.

My sister's job does not involve music, but she is an amazing singer and songwriter.

I think festivals have a responsibility to show different genres of music to people.

Not being treated OK is something everyone can relate to, no matter what age or gender.

Sometimes it's really weird being an artist, and I deal with that best by being myself.

I wanted to show that pop music can be about something else other than the big love songs.

My favourite thing about being in nature is that I feel so small and kind of insignificant.

Just because I'm a girl and it's pop doesn't mean I have to write about love and heartbreak.

My family didn't push me into the music industry; they just wanted me to do something I loved.

To win BBC's Sound of 2018 was a huge honour. A lot of my favourite artists have won it before.

I'm lucky to be collaborating with a lot of great songwriters/producers - and it's all about chemistry!

Making vocal hooks is my favorite thing to do. That's what I love about songwriting - making catchy stuff.

When I wake up in the morning, the one thing I think about is being comfortable and wearing enough clothes.

When I first heard my song on the radio, I started crying. My baby was out there, and it all became very real.

When a different type of music is put in front of you, you can choose for yourself what you're supposed to like.

Playing piano and singing whatever comes naturally is the best thing for me - the only thing that feels genuine.

I was definitely quirky. Me and my sister played a lot together. She's my best friend - and we would put on fashion shows.

It's so special to meet people after the show, getting that connection during the actual concert. It creates a stronger bond.

Even in high school, music was just a really fun thing on the side. I don't think I grasped the fact that it could be a profession.

I wasn't a huge fan of superhero movies before I watched 'Wonder Woman.' That was a really cool film - I really like all the stunts.
