About

is an emerging artist from Guovdageaidnu and Gáivuotna, Sápmi.

Her lyrics are both honest and poetic, sharing thoughts and emotions in Northern Sámi with vulnerability and strength. Growing up in a Sámi community, yet with roots from the coastal areas of Sápmi where colonization and Norwegianization were among the harshest, her family – like many others – was deeply affected and nearly lost their language and identity. Through her music, Elina reclaims this history, transforming it into pride and strength while showing that “we are still here.”

For the past years Elina has been working on her debut EP, “Luoitte”, which is set to release on October 17th.
