Biography
Bare Fjas og Blågras is a genuine bluegrass band that plays music for children of all ages!
The three guys in Bare Fjas og Blågras have always loved children's songs. But that's not the only thing these guys are interested in! They are also very fond of playing music from the American countryside, namely bluegrass. This brings back memories of growing up in the Norwegian countryside, among cows and hay, away from the city and noise. Then one day they had a great idea! Maybe it's possible to play children's songs in a bluegrass style?
You'll hear familiar and beloved children's songs in fresh bluegrass arrangements, such as "Badger in the Ceiling" and "Troll Mother", in addition to the band's own songs such as "Lørdagsgodt", "Grandpa Burrito" and "Køntri til taket detter ned". The trio LOVES playing children's songs in true cowboy fashion, and can be described as a wonderful mix of Øystein Sunde and Knutsen & Ludvigsen.
Øyvind Smidt: Vocals, fiddle and mandolin.
Hans Martin Storrøsten: Vocals, guitar.
Fritz Flåmo Eidsvaag: Vocals, banjo, double bass.
With three-part singing, five instruments and a total of 27 strings, Bare Fjas og Smågras takes you to the countryside to experience songs you may have heard before - like a REAL cowboy would!
