Ephemera are a Norwegian pop trio consisting of Christine Sandtorv, Inger-Lise Størksen and Jannicke Larsen. Formed in 1994, their first album, Glue, was released in 1996. After several years of touring, studying music, and writing new songs, the second album, Sun, was released in 2000. That album earned the band a Best Group nomination in the Spellemannprisen, Norway’s equivalent of the Grammy awards. Three more albums were released across the next five years.
