Susanna and the Magical Orchestra in London

Talented Norwegian duo with gig in London.

The music of Susanna and the Magical Orchestra has a retro-futuristic edge to it, the arrangements evolving and varied, the words reflecting such topics as inner conflicts, human relations, outer space, stars and planets, journeys to unknown galaxies and more. The band consists of Susanna Wallumrød on vocals and Morten Qvenild on keyboard. After their successful covers album ”Melody Mountain” from 2006, filled with intimate and highly personal takes on mostly well known songs, they return to their own songwriting skills of their debut album ”List of Lights and Buoys” (2004) with their new album “3”. In this album, Susanna and the Magical Ochestra present us with eight new originals as well as two covers. The new songs are written deep in the Norwegian woods and by the sea, but the topics lay much further away.
Susanna will also perform solo as warm-up for Hope Sandoval and the Warm Inventions in a sold out Queen Elizabeth Hall in London 8 November.   Susanna and the Magical Orchestra is featured in the recent edition of Mojo.
