Simen is originally a metal guitarist, as seen on his picture above. He has the drums as a secondary instrument. We began working together when we both attended the music production course at Noroff School of Technology in Bergen in 2017. On the profesional releases he recorded the drums at the main studio at Noroff. He also assisted me with the setup and gear. We have collaborated on several other group projects, both at Noroff and in Ellertsen Studio.

When I met Olav in the fall of 2014 he was already an established musician. He had TV appearences, concerts and gigs behind him. With the band "The Pop Culture Elite" he also released the album "Perfectly Normal Paranoia" in 2013. Olav is a very capable pianist, and a singer & songwriter. His music has an original and recognizable sound, with a lot of complex harmonies and beats. He also have another and more recent band called "Fylking Fornuft".
My collaborations with Olav has been musically enlightening for the both of us. In 2015 he was featured six times on my album "Living in a Dream". I wrote the songs, and we composed and arranged the them together. His musical touch is particularly noticeable in the bridges and solo parts.

Tobias is a writer. He often writes the lyrics to the songs we produce. Together we create the signature style of music that many in the local community are a fan of. To date, four of our songs has been released. Two of them has even been released professionally. "Mørkeblå Soldater" from april of 2019 is by far the most popular. It was written as a team song for the local footbalclub Olsvik IL, where Tobias himself is playing. The song is being played at Olsvik Stadion on game nights and other occations.

Chris is a very skillfull and passionate guitarist, with high dedication to the craft. Chris and I go way back. We used to play together with a few other guys when we were kids. In later years we have reconnected, and now he is featured on my latest release Honning Med Bismak (2020) with an excellent performence. Stay tuned, as he will surely reappear in my music in the futere.

Nikolai is a singer & singwriter. He also plays guitar and piano. Nikolai and me went to school together for a year, where we cooperated musically with various projects. He progressed rapidly as a musician, and he was performing with me as a musical right hand. He is a dedicated musician who has proven himself to be a capable artist, and a great friend.

Trygve is a journalist and a photagrapher. A few years back he found his inner musician and picked up the saxophone. My latest release "Honning med Bismak" is his debut as a artist. Maybe we will hear more from him in the future.

"Grimstad Fotballkor"
In december 2018 Ellertsen Studio produced "Mørkeblå Soldater". As a part of the song, we wanted a signature catchphrase, and we wanted the sound of football supporters on the stand. Originally we wanted a whole choir of fotball players, but that wasn´t feasible. The people in the picture above, recreated all the necessary chanting to make it sound real. I thank them for their help, and for a very fun day at the office.
