“Let the light in” - Out Dec. 1:
The Global Bangladesh band Chirkutt and artist Marte Wulff (NO) release song for solidarity in dark times.
In a collaboration that transcends borders and cultures, Norwegian artist and climate activist Marte Wulff teams up with renowned Bangladeshi band Chirkutt to release a powerful anthem entitled "Let The Light In".
Marte Wulff, recognized not only for her voice and songwriting, but also for her dedication towards environmentalism, found common ground with Chirkutt through a joint commitment to climate and social consciousness with music as the point of focus.
The collaboration aims to raise awareness of the urgent climate change-issues and the need for global solidarity and justice.
Bringing together artists from different corners of the world, "Let The Light In" is more than just a song; it is a call to action, a reminder of our shared responsibility to work for peace and protect our planet and all its inhabitants, both now and in the future.
The lyrics address the impact of the destructive forces that drive both war, climate change and inequality, and call upon the listener to act and to be responsible stewards of the planet and all its inhabitants.
The music is a mixture of Norwegian and Bangladeshi musical elements, which symbolizes coming together across cultures for a common cause.
With hopes of a brighter future: "Let The Light In" is out Dec. 1.

Prosjekter
Jeg er først og fremst artist, men de senere årene har den jobben ført med seg stadig nye spennende ideer og muligheter. Min store interesse for klima- og miljøsakens mange aspekter gjør at jeg ønsker å jobbe med det på flere områder og med ulike vinklinger. Her kan du lese om noen
av tingene jeg jobber med.

Våren 2022 er jeg tatt ut til å delta på klimalederskapskurset til den anerkjente organisasjonen Julies Bicycle, som er ledende innen arbeidet med å koble bærekraft og kultur. I alt 24 ulike kunstnere og andre aktører på feltet fra hele norden deltar, og jeg lærer masse som jeg håper å kunne dele med flere gjennom mitt Legacy prosjekt, som er en del av kurset jeg selv velger hva skal handle om. Les mer om det her.

Jeg har et pågående samarbeid med fotograf Marte Vike Arnesen om å lage klimanøytrale musikkvideoer til mine låter. Film og fotomaterialet er også del av et større kunstprosjekt TBA. Se våre filmer her
