Ida Maria is known as one of Norway's biggest international music successes, kickstarting her punk rock career with songs like "I like you so much better when you’re naked," "Oh my God," and "Bad Karma." In June 2021, she released the "Dirty Money EP." Five straight-to-the-point rock songs filled with energy, rawness, primal screams, and strong messages. Ida Maria speaks her mind and takes a strong stance against her past and the unhealthy and unattainable female ideals we have constantly been fed.
She has previously sung a duet with Iggy Pop, is praised by Tom Waits who says, "She’s a poet," and is an international artist celebrated by many, including Tommy Lee (Mötley Crüe) who shared the music video for the title track "Dirty Money" on his social media.
Ida Maria had the best tour of her life in the fall of 2022! They have reached a new level as a band, and the audience has been absolutely fantastic. The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, and they have played better than ever before. Ida Maria states that she can honestly say they have grown both as individuals and musicians on this journey.
Now, she wants to take her fantastic band around to festivals and really bring punk rock back!
