Career
Lauvdal studied music on the Jazz program at Trondheim Musikkonsevatorium, NTNU,[1] where she joined the acoustic jazz band "Moskus" together with fellow students, Fredrik Luhr Dietrichson (double bass) from Haugesund and Hans Hulbækmo (drums) from Tolga, at NTNU. Their debut album was Salmesykkel (2012)[2] Lauvdal also played in "Your Headlights Are On" with a self-titled debut album Your Headlights Are On (2011) and "Avalanche" debuting with the album Whiteout (2012), with Hans Hulbækmo. "Skadedyr" is another project initiated at NTNU together with Heida Mobeck, performing at Victoria, in 2012.[3]
Lauvdal played with the band "Ósk" at "Parkteateret" in 2013, a project that builds on the nartrative traditions of old traditional and folk music, and with clear singer/songwriter notations it moves between jazz and pop to convey emotion or strong opinions. Oskar Yazan Mellemsether joined with additional musicians Vegard Edvardsen, Heida Mobeck, Siv Øyunn Kjenstad and Thorstein Lavik Larsen in 2010 to form the band "Ósk". In 2011 gave many gigs and concerts, including on "By:Larm" 2011, "Pstereofestivalen", "Nattrock" and "Storåsfestivalen".
