The most important way that Nordic artists can use Facebook

I think I could also have named this posting "The single biggest mistake I see Nordic artists making on Facebook" — but I'd prefer to keep this positive. :-)

There's no doubt…this is fearless guitar playing

0 comments

This past weekend, I featured the Norwegian band, Hellbillies, on Multe Music. You can listen to it here.
The tune I used to open the show was "Tvil på travbanen (Doubt on the Racetrack)", a tour de force instrumental guitar piece by Lars Håvard Haugen, lead guitarist of the group. Haugen is one of Norway's elite [...]

Hellbillies: På Ål Stasjon

0 comments

I can never say enough great things about the Norwegian band, Hellbillies. They are, in many ways, the Norwegian equivalent of The Eagles or the Allman Brothers Band — the latter of which was and remains a great inspiration for them.
They are called "country rock" but their music goes far beyond that and they [...]

The Respatexans: This Train Is Gone

I've written about Norway's top country band, Hellbillies, in a previous post.
Now let me introduce a Hellbillies offshoot — The Respatexans! They, too, are a country band. They share some members — the amazing Brothers Haugen — with Hellbillies. But they sing in English, while the Hellbillies sing in Norwegian with a Hallingdal dialect.

I'm celebrating today, so I'm going to pick one of my favorite bands to feature on a special day — Norway's top country rock band, Hellbillies.
I may have become one of their first fans in the USA when a Norwegian friend introduced me to their music in the mid-1990s. And while I have all their [...]
