Live at Oslo Konserthus

2019

Tom Roger Aadland has released seven critically acclaimed studio albums. “Live i Oslo Konserthus” is his first live album and catches Tom Roger backed by a six piece band featuring some of Norway’s finest musicians. The fourteen songs include audience favourites such as «Alle dei i ei» («All of Those in One») and «Min beste ven på ein dårleg dag» («My Best Friend on a Bad Day»), as well as exciting new versions of Dylan translations such as «Vikla inn i blått» («Tangled Up in Blue») and «Leopardskinnsbunadshetta di» («Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat»). The album also includes a duet with singer Tove Bøygard, «Farten til lyden av einsemd» – a Norwegian version of John Prine’s «Speed of the Sound of Loneliness». “Live i Oslo Konserthus” has been produced by Lars Voldsdal (Madrugada, Hellbillies).
