Ida Metsberg: Weaving Finnish Soul and New York Spirit into Song with Nordic Artists of New York

As a key member of Nordic Artists of New York (NANY), Metsberg is not only sharing her own unique voice but also contributing to a groundbreaking movement uniting Nordic and Baltic artists in a celebration of art and environmental consciousness.

From Healing to Harmony

Hailing from Finland, a nation renowned for its happiness and pristine nature, Metsberg brings a distinctly Nordic sensibility to her songwriting.. Metsberg crafts intelligent, thoughtfully structured songs that explore the complexities of life with raw honesty. "Songwriting is my therapy," she reveals. "It's how I process my deepest emotions, heal from past hurts, and celebrate the resilience of the human spirit."

This deeply personal approach has resonated with audiences across New York City and the United States, where Metsberg has built a reputation as a captivating performer. Her theatrical background adds a dynamic layer to her live shows, making each performance a memorable experience. Her 2022 debut EP, Somebody New, offered a glimpse into her artistic world, and she is currently working on new material, promising a further evolution of her sound. Her talent was formally recognized by the National Finlandia Foundation when she was named Performer of the Year in 2023. 

A Voice for Unity

Metsberg's journey has led her to a natural partnership with Nordic Artists of New York. For Metsberg, joining NANY represents more than just career advancement; it's an opportunity to connect with a community that shares her values and amplifies the collective voice of Nordic and Baltic creatives in a highly competitive environment.

"Being part of NANY feels like finding a home away from home," Metsberg shares. "It's a chance to connect with fellow artists who understand the unique challenges and rewards of building an international career, and to contribute to something bigger than myself."

Nature's Muse

This connection to Nordic culture and nature will be powerfully evident at True North 2025, NANY's flagship Earth Day event. Held at the historic New York Estonian House on April 22, 2025, True North will be an immersive experience showcasing a diverse range of Nordic and Baltic talent, including music, dance, visual arts, and multidisciplinary collaborations. The event will also highlight local environmental initiatives, reinforcing the vital link between art and sustainability.

The Road Ahead

As a vital part of True North, Metsberg will share the stage, and connect with her artistic heritage, and the New York Community. "I'm so excited to be part of True North, and to share the stage with all the other Nordic and Baltic artists"

For audiences, Metsberg's participation in True North promises an evening of heartfelt music and a powerful reminder of the unifying power of art. For Metsberg, it's an opportunity to contribute to a movement that celebrates both her cultural heritage and her commitment to a more sustainable future.
