Thulla • Press
“Thulla is a quirky, soulful Danish singer and songwriter. Her music
sounds jazzy, especially as it is accompanied by a jazzy orchestra, but
it defies categorisation into a jazzy box. Perhaps it is her energetic,
eccentric voice that is almost Bjork-like in its raw delivery that makes
her stand out. As one critic writes, she sings with the ³nerves on the
outside of her voice². She has created her own unique blend of jazz,
blues, pop and rock that is soulful, dreamy and unforgettable. Her
unusual and emotional voice - and lyrics - seep under your skin making
you take notice whether you want to or not. She¹s a singer unaffected by
transient trends and manages to sound classical and yet innovative. One
to watch”!
(Celestial Voices, 2003)
“Remember this name: Thulla. Let me be a bridge between you and this
very talented artist and her work (...) Whatever category Thulla¹s music
fits into, rest assuret it is unconventional. In the spirit of sharing
all things good, musical and international, I encourage you to visit
http://www.thulla.net/, listen to all the samples and decide which CD you¹d like
to get first”.
(David Lilly, Nefarious Entertainment Magazine , 2003)
Thulla has released four albums – “Thulla” 1999, “The Spirit of
Yesterday” 2001, “Double Up, Please!” 2002 and “EvergreenMachine” 2003.
She is praised by the big, danish papers, and her albums are sold to
Japan as yet.
She plays a lot of gigs all the year through with her exellent “Thulla¹s
Organic Orchestra”, which count some of the greatest jazz-musicians in
Denmark.
VERONICA MORTENSEN - BIOGRAPHY
Born in Aarhus (Denmark), singer VERONICA MORTENSEN was raised by her mother in Athens, Greece. At the age of 20, she moved back to Denmark to pursue a singing career - a natural choice, being the daughter of 2 musicians. She started her own soulband, a mini-bigband playing Aretha Franklin covers and Motown-classics, and soon after joined the more experimental acidjazzband Virtual Fantasy.
VERONICA graduated from Royal Academy of Music in Aarhus in the summer of 1996 and took her Diploma exam from Rythmic Conservatory of Copenhagen in 1998. She has performed on several albums and TV-shows, both as a lead singer and as a background vocalist.
VERONICA has been a popular guest with the Kluvers Big Band for the last 12 years, with whom she has played the Aarhus International Jazzfestival, toured Estland and played "Sacred Concerts" of Duke Ellington. She also has appeared in rockmusicals like "A tribute to the Blues Brothers", "Another Brick In The Wall" and "Hair" playing in both Copenhagen and Paris.
VERONICA's first album "Pieces In A Puzzle" (2003), was very well received by the critics and was chosen for "Album of the week" by the Danish national radio (DR P4). Following the album she played concerts in Denmark and abroad, among them at the "Bankok Heineken Jazzfestival" (Thailand) and at "Ladies' Jazzfestival" in Gdynia (Poland). Beside her own music and band, she has also appeared with Peter Vuust Quartet, with whom she recorded the cd "Image Of Falling" (Imogena Records 2005).
In April 2007, Veronica released her second album ”HAPPINESS is not included” at Stunt Records.
