Post Description
The music has been called "soul" and "folk", for want of better terms, but "spirit music indeed", as Mike Butler of Dyverse Music described it,
perhaps hits nearer the mark. Whatever one calls it, hearing Kreg Viesselman sing is an intense experience. He deals with humanity in its basic and most instinctive forms, in a style that belies a deep human intelligence and wry wit. His is a narrative voice, at once brutal and touching, which deserves its place in the canon of great American songwriters.
If You Lose Your Light, was recorded at Harrys Gym Studio in Oslo by producer and engineer Bjarne Stensli.
The album features some of Norway’s premier musicians: on both double and electric bass is Sondre Meisfjord (Come Shine, Kari Bremnes, Aasmund and Odd Nordstoga, Gjermund Larsen Trio).
Anne Lise Frøkedal (Harrys Gym, I Was A King) contributed vocals on several tracks. Øystein Hvamen Rasmussen (Oslo Inn, The Holy Tongue) plays drums, and Bjarne Gustavsen (Maria Mena, Nancy Drew) plays piano.
