Norwegian multi-instrumentalist Sylvaine has just released her fourth studio album, Nova and is streaming her entire album for a limited time to celebrate the release. In addition, Sylvaine will be embarking on her first ever North American tour this Spring in support of Amorphis. She will join the tour on April 18th in Millvale, PA and will cross the country before circling back to the East Coast where the trek will conclude in Baltimore, MD on May 12th.
Sylvaine is a one-woman multi-instrumentalist, bandleader, and composer born Kathrine Shepard, and she seeks to speak to the spirit that “exists beyond the veil of convention and stereotypes”. She does not pursue the “dark melodic folklorist trope” that has become prevalent in the Metal scene, but rather, she is a classically trained composer and arranger whose songs, that originate on unplugged electric guitars, end up “breaking down the conventions of what modern music can accomplish”.
