Artist of the week: amaida.

Experience concerts with amiada. in the Hall of Fame exhibition twice daily during the period July 13 - 18 and get closer to one of the new voices in Norwegian popular music!

Concert time:
11:30
13:30
Duration approximately 20 minutes.

amaida. is an Oslo-based Cameroonian-Norwegian artist, who blends rnb, soul and funk with honest reflections on her unique journey. Through her music, she creates a sanctuary for overthinking and highly sensitive souls, offering a safe space to feel, reflect and heal. amaida.'s heartfelt melodies and lyrics tackle the complexities of human emotions, inviting listeners to embrace their vulnerability and find solace in the music.

Audiences have drawn parallels between amaida.s sound and artists like Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill, Jazmine Sullivan and Yebba. Add a little emotional turbulence in a familiar Gen Z style and you have amaida.

The 23-year-old from Trøndelag made an impression at last year's Vill Vill Vest, her first festival, where she received a 10/10 from Musikknyheter. They predicted that she would soon take to bigger stages, wrote that "it's not easy to see what amaida. lacks as an artist" and encouraged record labels to be the one who "runs the fastest with a pen in hand".

The debut single "the dark side of the moon", released in April 2025, was described by Pulsmagasinet as "a debut that smells like stardust", and was recommended on NRK P3 Urørt. Now amaida. is working on her debut EP "21st century love", and plans to release the next single in the spring of 2026.

The concert is included in the admission ticket to Rockheim.

About the Artist of the Week at Rockheim:

Every week this summer, six young artists take the stage in Rockheim's Hall of Fame exhibition with their own music and personal expressions.
The artist of the week performs a 20-minute concert twice daily, Monday through Saturday. The artists choose the genre, theme, and set list themselves. The concerts are held on stage in Rockheim's Hall of Fame exhibition, in the middle of the museum's outreach arena.
