Lundeng had Arvid Engegård as violin teacher and is a prominent practitioner of north Norwegian folk music. She has collaborated with Halvdan Sivertsen and later Sinikka Langeland (2005), among others. In the Midnight Sun Trio she collaborates with Knut Erik Sundquist (bass) and Arvid Engegård (violin). Within S.L. Band she collaborated with Bjørn Andor Drage (piano), Håvar Bendiksen (guitar and accordion), Trond-Viggo Solås (bass) and Arnfinn Bergrabb (percussion). Lundeng got in contact with old fiddlers in Salten, Lofoten at an early stage and she has undoubtedly contributed to the preservation of the Nordland traditional folk heritage.[1]
From the start Lundeng primarily was a promoter of traditional folk music from Nordland, she has over the years shifted more to perform the music she makes herself. But still she has the core of the Nordland folk music in most of what she writes. At the same time she gets inspiration both from jazz, contemporary and folk traditions from other countries.[6]
