Ida Maria is a Norwegian punk-rock powerhouse celebrated for her electrifying live performances and raw, melodic energy. Drawing inspiration from icons like Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin, as well as her contemporaries, Ida Maria's music blends a rebellious rock attitude with sharp social commentary.
Ida Maria grew up in the small town of Nesna in the far north of Norway—a town that may seem an unlikely birthplace for a new female international rock star. But talent and willpower know no borders, and in 2008 she crashed onto the international scene with anthems like “I Like You So Much Better When You’re Naked” and “Oh My God” from her debut album, Fortress Round My Heart (2008).
Her powerful, raw voice and high-energy live performances led her to perform at major festivals, including Roskilde (Denmark), Reading (UK), and SXSW (US), as well as collaborate with legends like Iggy Pop and earn praise from artists such as Tom Waits. She has released several albums, including Katla (2010) and Scandalize My Name (2016), and her work has been featured in films, TV shows, and commercials- like Grey’s Anatomy, Big Mouth, Skins, Gossip Girl +++, further solidifying her influence in pop culture.
In 2021, she released her Dirty Money EP, fortifying her reputation for fearless, unapologetic rock. Her work continues to captivate audiences worldwide, delivering music as bold and authentic as her performances.
New album due autumn 2025! 🔥
