A musically poetic afternoon with an extraordinary trio
Trond Helge Johnsen, Christian Nystrøm, Ingvar Hovland
Trond Helge is the artist with gold in his throat and bullet wounds in his soul. Via various orphanages, institutions and drunken detention centres, he was eventually roped in by someone other than the police - namely music. Today, he is an established singer praised by his audience as well as by prominent Norwegian colleagues who describe him as a fantastic communicator with a God-given voice and great stage presence - and with real goods on his heart.
Christian Nystrøm has a CV longer than the Hollywood Walk of Fame and thrives in various genres on the musical battlefield. He has, among MANY others, produced, written for or played with Kurt Nilsen, Maria Mena, Umberto Tossi, Olav Stedje, Åge Sten Nilsen, Maria Haukaas Mittet, Ravi, Samantha Fox, Tone Damli, The Monroes, Johnny Logan, Katrina from Katrina And The Waves, Bobbysocks - as well as his "own" bands Loveshack and Frimann (where Trond Helge is the vocalis.
Ingvar Hovland is best known for his bad singing voice and his good lyrics for Vamp, Lars Martin Myhre, Eigil Berg, Elle Melle, Ingebjørg Bratland, Rita Eriksen, Vidar Johnsen, Frode Alnæs, Trond Granlund, Åse Kleveland, Stavangerensemblet, Helene Bøksle, Olav Stedje, New Jordal Swingers, Blest, Torbjørn Økland, Frimann and many more.
In addition, they have written for and performed in a number of revues and cabarets - including a number of years with Tønes.
Together they go for just over an hour of music, poetry, wit and kindness.
