Biography
Karoline Krüger, from Bergen, is eighteen years old. A high-school student, she plays the piano, sings, and practices ballet in her leisure hours. She made her debut on Norwegian TV at fourteen singing her own compositions and several TV performances have followed. Karoline will soon be releasing her first LP.
The music composer, Anita Skorgan, made her debut at 14 years old as a serious music pianist. She has issued nine albums as a pop singer and composer. In the Eurovison Song Contest she has represented Norway four times as a vocalist including the 1981 presentation in Dublin. The song was arranged by Kjetil Bjerkestrand, a graduate from the Norwegian High School of Music.
Erik Hillestad, the lyricist, is the director of a Norwegian gramophone record company which he established 14 years ago. He was awarded a Norwegian Grammy prize for his record production and has written extensively for Norwegian artistes.
