She’s grown into a guiding light for post-metal, but Sylvaine continues to reach new horizons.

Last month, Sylvaine completed her first solo tour of North America along with her fellow Nordic songstress and Season of Mist label mate  Eivør. In front of sold-out crowds from Los Angeles to Denver, Toronto and Silver Spring, Maryland, she performed interpretations of traditional Norwegian folk songs from her latest EP Eg Er Framand. Her setlist also included fan favorites from Nova and Atoms Aligned, Coming Undone, which made her the first woman to ever be nominated for Best Metal Album at the Norwegian Grammys. 

“Sylvaine’s hypnotic melodies established a mesmerizing ambiance that lingered long after her set”, mxdwn exclaimed.

“Both sweet and haunting”, praised Parklife DC.  

Now, Sylvaine is stepping out on her own once more. Only this time, she’s embarking on her very first solo headlining tour of Europe. She’ll be performing her swooning and swirling set around Eg Er Framand during 15 dates across Europe. Ohioan neo-folk band Osi and the Jupiter and Sweden’s Grift will join as support. 

“I’m extremely excited to announce my very first headlining solo tour around Europe”, Sylvaine says. “I can’t wait to play an intimate, dynamic and highly emotive set for you all with the great Osi and the Jupiter and the loveliest Grift come May and June!”

Eg Er Framand traces back to Sylvaine’s earliest roots.

Kathrine Shepard grew up in Norway, amidst the contrasts between nature and urbanity, on the outskirts of downtown Oslo. While studying music, dance and drama in high school, she performed several times at the Kampen Church. This 19th century relic is where Kathrine recorded most of Eg Er Framand, which includes interpretations of traditional Norwegian folk songs, along with three of her own original songs to the cannon.

When Sylvaine first heard the title track, it hit her like no other song had before. Since then, she’s shared “Eg Er Framand” with rapturous audiences everywhere, but this EP is the first time she’s captured its magic on record. Each note is held with soft restraint, as if cupped into the palm of her hand, like an offering. Close your eyes and envision her reaching through the trees, into the shadows, as her feet slowly lift off the ground. 

To this day, “Dagsens Augo Sloknar” still has mysterious origins, but the lyrics were written in 1891 by Elias Blix, a professor-turned-politician who also wrote hymns. Staying true to the original’s delicate, reverent melody, Sylvaine sings in a breathy, elongated whisper that’s haunting and soothing, like a shadow. But while it opens with just a steady hum of organ, her rendition ends by pulling you into a trance.

Kathrine Shepard, the visionary artist behind the evocative musical project SYLVAINE, weaves an intricate tapestry of emotions through the language of music. A transcendental bridge between worlds, a mesmerizing duality that encapsulates the beautiful and the harsh, light and darkness, serenity and chaos, and the delicate balance between the external world and the inner sanctum of the soul. It is a symphony that harmonizes the human experience with its spiritual origins – a resonance of something beyond the tangible.

Sylvaine’s compositions are a visceral journey through the vast spectrum of emotions that the complexities of the human experience have to offer. They encapsulate the inherent struggle of being an entity in this world, yet not entirely of it. Kathrine’s music serves as a conduit for her innermost feelings, a cathartic expression of the eternal longing that resides within the very core of her melodies.

Akin to a fairytale spun from the threads of Norwegian folklore, a narrative that resonates with the spirits of ancient woods and the whispers of long forgotten creatures. With every ethereal note and haunting melody, she conjures images of untamed forests, of misty clearings inhabited by mystical beings. In this artistry, there is an undeniable sense of transcendence, where listeners are transported beyond the confines of the ordinary into a dreamscape where reality and fantasy converge. A profound sense of wonder and allure creates a unique musical alchemy – with a touch of enchantment that lingers long after the music has ceased.

With four albums and one split-EP released to date, Sylvaine’s ethereal soundscapes have been taken to stages across Europe, North America and South America, leaving audiences mesmerized by the transcendent power of the band’s live performances. Two of these albums have been nominated for the Norwegian Grammy Awards Spellemannprisen in the category of metal. The ability to transport listeners to otherworldly realm through her music is a manifestation of the artistry & profound impact the band can bring.

As Sylvaine prepares to unveil her upcoming EP, Eg Er Framand, she embarks on a deeply introspective and serene journey through the rich tapestry of Norwegian heritage and tradition. Folk tales of old are brought to life in this new chapter of her musical odyssey, offering a glimpse into the depths of her creative spirit and an exploration of the roots that anchor her artistry. A reflection of myths is embraced through exquisite sonic realms.

On her new EP, Sylvaine calls out from the deepest and darkest depths of emotion, only to reverberate with the ethereal power of her voice. 

Eg Er Framand comes out this Friday, March 22. But you can listen to all six songs today on Season of Mist’s YouTube channel.

Sylvaine has grown into a guiding light for ambient post-metal, but her second EP traces back to her earliest roots.  

Kathrine Shepard grew up in Norway, amidst the contrasts between nature and urbanity, on the outskirts of downtown Oslo.

But while it opens with just a steady hum of organ, her rendition ends by pulling you into a trance.

Eg Er Framand intimately explores the transient nature of humanity against a steady, familiar backdrop of Scandinavian landscapes. Ascend with Sylvaine into a land before time that feels both ancient and renewed.

Since Eg Er Framand was announced, Kathrine has been revealing its overarching narrative piece by piece. With the album’s arrival on YouTube, she’s now giving us its final chapter so that we can read the whole story from start to finish.

A beating heart so pure
Who wished to feel once more
As her eyes slowly opened to the world

She lifted her head
And at once beheld
A light in front of her

A path to take
The choice to make
To lead her on her way

A story about to begin
Of a soul ignited again
On a road to turn loose dismay

This guiding light
So strong and bright
Called out for her to follow

For this life
Could lead to strife
If her core she did not shadow

In heavy rags draped
With a spirit that ached
She started moving forward

As she stumbled thru
A dance of hope grew
The motion to leave her untethered

She reached out for the light
Yet darkness did not fight
To be unbroken, the two should marry

For truths she desired to meet
In this she happiness could seek
Releasing the clasp of woe and worry

This world may seem cold
And peace it might not hold
Yet so much beauty she encountered

But only for a moment in time
Does one get to experience this life
Accepting this gift, she no longer suffered

On her new EP, Sylvaine traces back to her roots in Norwegian folk music. Eg Er Framand was recorded at the Kampen Church in Oslo, where she performed while studying music in high school.

When Sylvaine first heard the title track, it hit her like no other song had before. Since then, she’s shared this song with rapturous audiences everywhere. Today, she’s releasing a new recording of “Eg Er Framand” that finds her searching for a higher, lonely power.

Eg Er Framand is out March 22 on Season of Mist.

Kathrine Shepard has grown into a guiding light for post-metal. As Sylvaine, her white-hot tremolo picking can ignite the coldest and blackest of hearts. She plays every instrument on Eg Er Framand, but the title track has no enchanting synths or eerie organ hums. Instead, the EP’s emotional centerpiece is solely powered by her otherworldly voice.

Kjaere Herre (Dear being of light)
om eitt eg ber deg (With this I beg of you)
Fylg og lei meg (Take my hand)
fylg og le meg alltid du (Show me the way always you)

Sylvaine holds each note with soft restraint, as if cupped into the palm of her hand, like an offering. Close your eyes and envision her reaching through the trees, into the shadows, as her feet slowly lift off the ground. 

“In the spring of 2023, when I had the idea to base this EP around Norwegian Folk music, I knew this song would be its center piece”, Kathrine says. “This song has taken a place deep within my soul. My first meeting with ‘Eg Er Framand’ truly shook me to my core. Immediately, I knew that I wanted to share this incredibly beautiful piece. I have performed ‘Eg Er Framand’ on stages all around the world. Very often, I’ve been met with the exact same intense, emotional response from the audience. I have no idea who wrote this song, but it speaks to the exact same feelings I’ve spent the last 10 years trying to capture with Sylvaine”.  

The visualizer for “Eg Er Framand” was created by William Lacalmontie

The lead single off Eg Er Framand comes from similarly mysterious origins.

The lyrics to “Dagsens Augo Sloknar Ut” were written in 1891 by Elias Blix, a professor-turned-politician, who also wrote hymns. Staying true to the original’s delicate, reverent melody, Sylvaine sings in a breathy, elongated whisper that’s both haunting and soothing. 

Watch as Kathrine dances across a magnificent tapestry of poetic landscapes in the song’s official video, which was directed and produced by William Lacalmontie.

SYLVAINE has grown into a guiding light for ambient post-metal and atmospheric black metal. But today, she’s tracing back to her roots on Eg Er Framand.

“A beating heart so pure
