Thomas Dybdahl

Norwegian Grammy Award (�Spellemannprisen�) and Alternative Award (�Alarm�) winner, 27-year old Thomas Dybdahl, is one of the most talented singer-/songwriters to emerge from the Norwegian music scene. He has received rave reviews for his Platinum selling �October trilogy�
Review in New York Times by Jon Pareles: Thomas Dybdahl writes songs that move in for extreme close-ups: his acoustic guitar, his breathy voice, his vows of love. He�s Norwegian, but he sings in English. On his third album, �One Day You�ll Dance for Me, New York City� (Recall) � released in Norway in 2004 and in the United States in 2006, while Norway got a newer album, �Science� � the tempos are glacial and the instruments few and pristine, so that every gesture is exposed. Anything less that total grace would turn precious and cloying, but Mr. Dybdahl maintains his poise; each song has the delicate suspense of a drawn breath. |
