As the recipient of the USBL Jazz Talent Award in 2024, pianist and vocalist Anna Ueland has assembled a stellar lineup of musicians for the project *‘Anna Ueland: Popular Music for the Like-Minded’*. The newly composed music premiered at the Oslo Jazz Festival in August 2025 and was met with an overwhelmingly positive response. In the project, she—together with her favorite musicians—lets intuition, nostalgia, and inspiration lead the way, drawing on memories that have left their mark—from books, Björk and the Beatles to *Twin Peaks*, spaghetti westerns, and snowboard films—resulting in a kind of experimental gangster-pop. ‘And a packed Victoria cheered. It was in itself so inspiring to witness the joy the musicians on stage radiated.’ (Jazz i Norge on the premiere).
