Merethe Soltvedt Demo - Reel May 2016 Mp3

Volunteer Park from my album Audio Charm Bracelet (2006) 

I am sitting on an ancient, native and tribal burial ground
There are no signs appearent to my eyes to know this
But I've been told that under this green and vibrant beautiful park
A people carried their dead and loved ones to their final resting place

My ignorance provided peace of mind, here
But this new information makes my soul ache, ache
And I can't turn it back

Now I'm looking at these people, wondering do they know
The history and sadness they trample on every day
I used to come to this place on my very best of days
To soak up the sun, but now I've found that heavy clouds reflect it best

My ignorance provided peace of mind, here
But this new information makes my soul ache, ache
And I can't turn it back

What's done is done, regrets won't change a thing
And all we can do is beg for forgiveness
And hope that someday the spirits will find peace

Makes me wonder about other places and cultures from the past
How much is forgotten or ignored. How dare we
Let others' dreams and efforts fade deep into oblivious states
And what will happen when we're all gone. Will anyone remember us

My ignorance provided peace of mind, here
But this new information makes my soul ache, ache
And I can't turn it back
repeat
...no I can't turn it back

Don`t Stay Down

FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS 
Mark Victor Spiwak, June 13, 1950- May 5, 2012  RIP
(written by Merethe Soltvedt, May 8, 2012)

You will always
Be the Show Case of
How life should be lived

You have shown this
Through your kindness and
Endless generosity

Hardly ever
Do we see such
Passion in one man

You´ve inspired
Countless people
So proud to call you a friend

And now it´s up to us to carry
The torch you lit up so brightly, but

How are we supposed to say goodbye
When you are this ingraved on our hearts
Forever in our hearts

Even through our
Tears of sorrow
You can make us smile

In our most precious
Memory banks
We press play and watch you for a while

But now it´s up to us to carry
The torch you lit up so brightly

How are we supposed to say goodbye
When you are this ingraved on our hearts
How are we supposed to say goodbye
When you are this ingraved on our hearts
You are forever in our hearts
Forever in our hearts

In our most precious
Memory banks
We press play and watch you for a while


Forever in our hearts (with VHO) - Rest in peace Mark Spiwak

Give Me Something

Out of the Cage is a project I’ve been wanting to work on for quite some time, and it’s such a joy to finally see it come to life!
I will be releasing five tracks at a time as Vol. 1, Vol. 2 etc, and they are pure products of some of my musical inner life coming Out of the Cage ;)
I’m not trying to sound like anyone but myself. I’m just having fun with my voice and some sparse instrumentation and in my world it's always more fun when it's shared!

Vol. 1 will be released March 13th, and if you’d like to support the project, and get the tracks before the official release date, here are a couple of options:

$5 - Receive a link with the five mp3’s + cover art
$10 - The five tracks as mp3 + wav, cover art + bonus track.

To pre-order you can send $ with message to PayPal account mersolno2@gmail.com,
or send me an email to mersolno2@gmail.com to figure out another options like Venmo and Vipps.

Go to https://www.facebook.com/Out-of-the-Cage-Merethe-Soltvedt-113160553568095/ to follow the project:)

THANK YOU!!

Merethe Soltvedt, born and raised in Norway, basically came out singing. She wrote her first "real" song (in English) at the age of 10, and performed it in front of the entire school district with 8 back up singers. She played drums in the school marching band, picked up the guitar at age 14, started her first rock band at 16 where she played lead guitar inspired by Nuno Bettencourt and Dimebag Darrell. At 18 she rediscovered the acoustic guitar and the singer songwriter genre, and the direction was set. 

These days, Merethe has relocated from Bergen, Norway to Los Angeles, California, where she continues to build her career.
