John Clare's Dream |
The New Album!Claudia has chosen a more acoustic approach for this album, playing acoustic guitar, mandolin and harmonica. Her long time collaborator and producer Erik Honoré, and band mates Tom Rudi Torjussen, percussion, and Jørn Raknes, guitar and steel-guitar, give a refined accompaniment to Scott's soulful songs. Special guests on the album are Vidar Ersfjord on piano and Mari Persen on violin.A true pleasure for long autumn nights! Words from the critics: "With her fifth album, Claudia Scott keeps her position as Norway's foremost performer in her genre, and she is quite unique in mastering the field in which she operates." - Birgitte H. Mandelid, Dagbladet "Claudia Scott has done well as a solo artist. On her fifth album you can hear why. She keeps, without a doubt, high standards as a writer and still sets her goals high as a singer." - gd.no "The difference between Claudia Scott and most other Norwegian singer/songwriters is plainly that she is the best. On her (fifth) album she has taken the music completely down and given it an acoustic approach, with added flying sample sounds that create a kind of dreamy mood.... Claudia performs her songs with confidence and frames them in an original, imaginative and unique way." - Geir Hovensjø, Ostlendingen Order it from Platekompaniet or download it from

Collection |
From the Critics:"Claudia Scott moved to Nashville in 1999, the same year "Soul on Soul," one of the best Norwegian albums of the decade, was released. "Collection" documents everything from her most commercial song "Heard You on My Radio" taken from her solo debut in 1992, to the almost ethereal and beautiful songs from "Emanuel's Secret" (1997) and "Soul on Soul." Included are also three new tidbits and as usual producer Erik Honoré is an important collaborator. Claudia does not adapt to any genre, but challenges them." - Dagbladet (5)"Claudia Scott is liberatingly blind to all genres, and approaches music in her own way, regardless of the musical expression. She has a voice that goes straight to your heart and gives us ethereal, beautiful songs including three new tidbits: "Some People," "Brink of Breakthrough" and "Love is". Let this collection be a key to her music, if you have not yet discovered it." - Aftenposten (5) Order it from Musikkverket, CDON.com or Platekompaniet. |

Flowers and Thorns |
From the Critics:"Great Debut--Unbelievably enough this is a solo debut. Claudia Scott appears as a "fully developed" singer/songwriter with an engaging folk/country/rock album. Immediate sing-along fast songs and more poetic songs that grow on you with every listening." - Dagbladet "As a songwriter there are few with her abilities in this country. "Flowers & Thorns" should receive great respect both with the public and her peers. The only minus with this release is that it is not a double album, and on vinyl." - Audio |
