Christine Guldbrandsen is born in Bergen, Norway on the 19th March 1985 is a talented singer with 3 albums to her credit, "Surfing in the Air", "Moments" & "Christine".
Christine began singing at the age of 3 in the local church choir. Christine was discovered at the age of 13 by Kjetil Fluge. In 2000, when Christine was 15, she sang at "Kulturbyåpningen" in Bergen. Among the audience was Sony Music Entertainment. After the performance Sony Music gave Christine her first record deal. The contract was a result of long dedicated time and work with Kjetil Fluge, Atle Halstensen and Erlend Fauske in the Bergen Studio "Sounds Familiar".
In 2001, only at the age of 16, Christine wrote her first lyrics which was entitled "Fly Away". Christine wrote this song as a dedication to her father, who died the same year.
At the age 18, Christine released her first album which was entitled "Surfing in the Air". After 3 weeks, Christine received a Gold Record and the album had sold over 30.000 copies. After this magnificent result, "Surfing in the Air" was released in Finland and she recorded a music video for the song "Surfing in the Air". The song with the same name as the album entered NRK Norsktoppen at number 3 and spent 5 weeks in the top 10
Right after the release of "Surfing in the Air" Christine and her team started working on her second album. The album was released in December 2004 and got the title Moments. The song "Because of You" became a hit on the Norwegian charts and was played a lot in the radio stations.
After a two year break, Christine entered the Norsk Melodi Grand Prix 2006, with the song "Alvedansen". She came to the super final with 4 other songs and won the whole thing with over 10.000 more votes! Christine then travelled to Athens, Greece to enter the Eurovision Song Contest 2006 where she placed 14 out of 24 songs. In Norway, "Alvedansen" spent five weeks at number 1 at Norsktoppen
In 2007, Christine released her third studio album entitled "Christine". This name was chosen because of the more personal appeal. "Dansekjolen" became a hit on the Norwegian charts placing 5th in Norsktoppen. The difference between "Christine" and her two first albums is Christine sings mainly in Norwegian, where the first two albums were in English.
Christine is current in the studio, creating her fourth album that hopefully will be released in 2009! « hide |
