Fredrik Strand Halland to Play at Osøren Blues & Jazz Festival

The FREDRIK STRAND HALLAND Band will be performing at The Osøren Blues & Jazz Festival June 29th 2008…For the English version click on this link: Orsoren Blues The show has two headliners. The main headliner for the show is none other then John Mayall with his BluesBreakers and The other Headliner is Bertine Zetlitz. Fredrik and The band will be playing with and supporting Bertine Zetlitz. Also Hungry John will be on the ticket along with a host of other acts too numerous to list here but you can see a partial list on the Flyer below or get the full list at The Osøren site. So if you would like to hear some great Blues by some by some of the best musicians anywhere in one of the worlds most beautiful Countries (Norway of course) then here is a great opportunity. Os is an interesting place. Os is situated in the southern part of Bergenshalvøya - The Bergen Peninsula - where the fjord and the coast meet. To the north Os borders on the city Bergen. Strong music traditions, with choirs and bands at a high level, have traditionally been the most important aspect of the cultural life at Os. A weekend at the end of June is the time for the blue notes. Osøren Blues & Jazzfestival has been arranged each summer since 1999, and has attracted an imposing group of musicians at a high national, and even international level. The blues artists are mostly brought to Os from other places, while the jazz artists are generally local.
