Биография

Hege Brynildsen put out her debut, just titled Hege, in 2012. The album was produced by American multi instrumentalist Fats Kaplin (John Prine, Jack White) at Norway´s number one studio, Athletic Sound. Hege was immediately seen as as one of Norwegian Americana´ s most distinctive voices. In the years since her first album release Hege has been writing songs, made albums and performed with her own band and as part of Norwegian singer Paal Flaata´s solo band. She has also been in demand as an interpreter of Bob Dylan songs, often at events led by Norwegian Dylan scholar Johnny Borgan. After entering the scene with Hege, a record that contained eight songs written by Hege as well as outstanding versions of Amos Milburn´s «Bad bad whiskey» and Geraint Watkins «Only a Rose», Hege made a sharp turn with her follow up album, Till Harry (2014). Where she sang in Swedish! The album was dedicated to her locally famous grandfather, Iron Harry, who always drove great American cars when cars in itself where scarce in post World War II Norway. Then in 2016 her third album was released; When My Man Comes To Town. And now in 2021; BLUE BIRDS BLACK KNIGHTS. Her last three albums produced by Gøran Grini. Also contributing on all her albums Fats Kaplin and Omar Østli. Finn-Tore Tokle and Eivind Kløverød are contributing on her newest release.
