Above
the
Arctic
Circle,
a-ha
recorded
their
1st
collection
of
new
songs
since
2015’s
Cast
in
Steel:
True
North
is
a
letter
from
a-ha,
and
a
poem
from
the
far
north
of
Norway.
Accompanied
by
a
film,
the
album
combines
the
band’s
visions
&
the
talent
of
Norwegian
orchestra
Arctic
Philharmonic
to
weave
a
narrative
reminding
us
of
our
collective
connection
to
the
environment.
This
multimedia
experience
with
a
powerful
narrative
is
unique
for
a-ha.
The
1st
single
to
be
released
from
the
album
is
the
elegiac,
soaring,
sweeping
'I’m
In',
accompanied
by
a
music
video
to
be
released
on
July
8th
along
with
the
pre-order-start
of
the
album.
For
what
at
once
is
their
11th
studio
album
and
also
a
very
immediate
document
of
its
creation,
a-ha
have
entered
a
new
world.
Since
their
world-wide
breakthrough
with
“Take
On
Me”
in
1985,
they
have
always
pushed
forwards.
Allied
to
this
spirit
of
embracing
innovation,
True
North
is
also
a
partnership
between
a-ha
and
Bodø,
which
in
2024
will
be
a
European
Capital
of
Culture
–
the
first
Arctic
city
to
be
chosen.
Magne
Furuholmen
shares
about
the
first
single
“I’m
In”:
«‘I’m
in’
is
a
song
about
total
commitment
and
a
show
of
support
for
someone
who
is
troubled.
Real
commitment
is
a
leap
of
faith.
Everyone
knows
how
difficult
it
can
be
to
offer
commitment
and
support
unconditionally,
but
this
is
what
it
takes
to
make
anything
worthwhile
happen;
love,
friendship,
change,
self-improvement,
careers,
a
better
world.
Easier
said
than
done
of
course,
but
it
begins
with
an
attitude,
then
uttering
the
words.
After
this
it
is
all
hard
work
to
realize
whatever
potential
your
commitment
has
in
the
world.
without
allowing
ourselves
this
attitude
everything
just
gets
bogged
down
with
conflicting
thoughts,
doubts
and
fear.
Just
say
it:
I’m
in.»
