Jazzland

Jazzland is a New York jazz label that was established in 1960 by Bill Grauer and Orrin Keepnews as a companion to their Riverside Records label. Originally focused on reissuing Riverside recordings, the label soon shifted its focus to new recordings, particularly material by Cannonball Adderly.

In 1972, Jazzland was bought along with its parent Riverside label by Fantasy. Since then, the label has continued to be a prominent force in the jazz music industry, releasing exceptional recordings from talented artists.

With its rich history and dedication to showcasing the best of jazz music, Jazzland remains an influential and respected label within the genre. From classic reissues to groundbreaking new releases, Jazzland continues to captivate audiences with its diverse catalog of extraordinary jazz recordings.

As an artist, she tours the world, and has had collaborative projects with musicians in India, Lebanon, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Iceland and New York, among others. She is currently a composer with Tingingsverket (commissioned music) for Vossa Jazz's 50th anniversary in 2023, contributing her work "I".

For her sophomore release, 'Mirage', LILJA has collaborated with four traditionalists from different parts of the world: Sara Marielle Gaup from Sapmi, Celio de Carvalho from Brazil, Zakaria Houaoura from Morocco and Ashraf Sharif Khan from Pakistan. These meetings are fused together in LILJA's music, creating from its multifaceted whole a kind of singular vision - mirage - of the world, seen from Oddrun Lilja's perspective.    In addition to Oddrun Lilja on guitar and vocals, the regular LILJA ensemble consists of Sanne Rambags on lead vocals, Bafana Nhlapo on percussion and vocals, Jo Skaansar on bass and Erik Nylander on drums.
