Rolffa (often stylized as rOlfFa) is a sámi pop group from Karasjok, Norway.
History
Rolffa was formed in 2006 when the frontman, Rolf Morten Anti Amundsen, came up with a melody that he felt an urge to write a song out of. He wrote and composed the song in a few hours, which went on the become the title song of their debut-album, Partyjoik.
In 2008, the band released their debut-album Partyjoik.
In 2010 they entered a contest hosted by NRK to make the best cover of the Kaizers Orchestra song "Hjerteknuser", where they won second place. The song went on to become one of Rolffa's most popular songs, and in 2022 they reached number 12 on VG's music charts for 4 weeks.
In 2011 they entered the Sámi Grand Prix, a sámi music competition, and won with the song "Gulatgo Mu"
