Behind the pseudonym ‘Maud’ stands artist, producer, composer and singer Kristine Hoff. Hoff grew up in Northern Norway, where the sun almost never shines or never sets. Maud makes an infectious blend of sharp hiphop and melodic pop and is a counterweight to the usual narratives around both genres. An intriguing and refreshing artist.
Press has been universally positive!

"A gem in the Norwegian underground scene." – A1234 (UK)
"The universe that Maud has created through the new album is resplendent with dark and spiky electronic-pop soundscapes that combine her experimentalist spirit with her instinct for original pop melodies." – Unrecorded (UK)
"Moving over a sea of consciousness, prepping for battle with deep synths and lightning-fast lyrics, this is Northern Norway’s Maud’s electronic tempest." – Chalkpit
