1816
1816 is a Norwegian songwriting collaboration between vocalist Wenche Losnegård and bassist Audun Ellingsen, joined by British cellist Gregor Riddell and drummer Erik Nylander. With backgrounds spanning jazz, pop and improvisational music, the quartet shapes an acoustic chamber-pop sound defined by intimacy, dynamic contrast and strong ensemble interplay.
Named after “the year without summer,” 1816 explores emotional landscapes of darkness and resilience through atmospheric textures and wide dynamic arcs. Their music moves from sparse, acoustic minimalism to more expansive passages, balancing shadowed tones with luminous melodies in a sound that is immersive and quietly powerful.
