Hedda Mae - Channel Mae - LP

Hedda Mae took the music industry by storm when she released her debut single in 2020. In just two years, she released an EP trilogy, collected on the LP “The Greatest Hits… So Far”. In 2022, her EP “This Might Get Loud” once again marked her as one of the country’s most promising pop artists.

After nearly two years of not releasing music, she’s finally ready with her long-awaited debut album. On the album Channel Mae, listeners are invited into a fictional radio show, where listeners are guided through the story and songs by a radio host. The audience is taken on a journey in a Bonnie & Clyde-like universe and witnesses a drama unfold. While the story takes place in a meta-universe, it reflects Hedda's real experiences from the past few years and criticizes the imbalanced power dynamics within her industry. 

The the first single from the album, “La di frickin da”, was met with rave reviews - The song received five-star reviews from Aftenposten, Dagsavisen, and Bergens Tidende. The latter wrote: "Taylor Swift has her Shake it off, Eminem has The Real Slim Shady, and Hedda Mae has La di frickin da."

The follow-up singles have also gained attention outside Norway, being playlisted on German radio stations like Bielefeld (HERTZ), Campuscrew Passau, and CT –Das Radio. After a two-year wait and four singles, Hedda Mae’s debut album “Channel Mae” was released on October 18 2024 – and is now being released on physical formats via Apollon Records.
