Life

Alida grew up in the Norwegian city of Stavanger . She began singing at the age of nine, recording herself with a tape recorder . She sang in public for the first time when she was eleven, during a talent show at her school. The positive reaction of her audience led her to attend secondary school with a focus on music.

Musical career

On April 27, 2014, Alida released her first Extended Play To Where We Reside . The EP consisted of seven recordings in the field of electro pop , which were released through Columbia Records .
