A Japanese article about the great development in Norwegian folk music was brought to my attention, because they mention my band!!! Really nice to see how the music just lives its own life, and this time in Japan! Article by Asaki Abumi

The 1st of September I will release my third single this year. "Mørketid" ("When the time is getting dark") is a song inspired by lives that has been lived, observations and conversations with people in different stages of life, wonder and expectation of what to expect when a life fades away. Like the day will rest and find comfort through the night, energies, dreams and vitality will be resurrected from a transformation through darkness. I look forward to share this song wit

Some months ago I did some vocals and hardangerfiddle tracking for the Norwegian composer Johannes Ringen and know it seems like the production team for the brand new TV-series of the Norwegian TV station NRK has decided to use the tracks. "Vikingane" will be broadcasted from the 1st of October with six episodes. This is a comedy based on the old Norwegian vikings and the norse mythology.

Last night was a blast! Surrounded by a total packed Gildehall with an amazing viking- and metal-crowd was so much fun! Thank you for an amazing reception under my midnight concert! Today I´m entering the outdoor stage with LEAF 2pm and look forward to another great day at Midgardsblot 2016!

We are ready for Midgardsblot and concert tonight 00:00 at the Gildehall!

With so many memories, thoughts and experiences to absorb after a month in the US, it´s good to spend some time by the Swedish cost in Fjällbacka. My family spent many summers here when I was a child and it felt really good to smell the sea and look at the same rocks as I did over twentyfive years ago. My sound engineer and guitarist, Stig Enger, just sent us the final mix for our upcoming singel, Mørketid, and I feel this song very close right now...

Friday the 19th of August I will do a midnight concert in The Gildehall during the festival Midgardsblot in Borre. On this intimate concert I will share the stage with Nils Jørgen Nygaard Kraft on guitar and keyes, my ten-stringed "Huldrefele" and my hardangerfiddel. Saturday I will do a show with the Nordic folk band L.E.A.F. which draws upon a large array of nature rituals and rural beliefs from Scandinavia’s traditional past in their music. I look forward to this years vik

The last stop before our travel to the airport and back to Norway tomorrow is with our dear friends in Yelm, Chief Rangingbear and his wife Whiteraven. Whiteravens art is very very beautiful and I would recommend a visit to her homepages arorastudios.com and darkstarscreation.com. It feels strange to leave this country, knowing that in just some hours we will be separated from all those wonderful friends. I have to remember you are just an ocean away and hopefully soon I´ll s

What an inspirational and beautiful place! Today we are visiting the ECETI Range in Trout Lake, Washington. Located by the base of the majestic Mount Adams (12281ft), James Gillians home is a mysterious place visited by people from all over the world. There is a long history of UFO sightings in the area going back hundreds of years in Native American Lore. An absolutely interesting experience both talking to Mr. Gillian and to observe the ongoing activities at the Sanctuary.
