BRENNEN LEIGH (USA) Sunday, August 23 at 7:00 PM – Herr Nilsen
One of the foremost songwriters and tradition bearers of classic country from the USA is coming to Herr Nilsen.
Brennen Leigh has established herself as one of the most respected artists in modern honky tonk and American roots music. With her critically acclaimed album Don't You Ever Give Up On Love, she delivers powerful stories of love, heartbreak, hope, and humor, wrapped in timeless melodies, western swing, and authentic country as the genre was meant to sound.
Leigh is known for her virtuosic guitar playing, her warm stage presence, and a songwriting craft that has earned her praise from legends like Guy Clark, Rodney Crowell, and Ray Benson. Colter Wall describes her as an artist with a unique ability to combine joy in playing, musicality, and true country feeling.
At Herr Nilsen, she brings with her a top-notch band: Kevin Skrla on guitar and pedal steel, the album's producer and one of today's most sought-after country musicians, Ivar Brynildsen on bass, known as one of Norway's leading musicians in country and roots, and Bjørn Haglund on drums, an experienced and sought-after drummer with extensive experience in the Norwegian and international country scene.
Together, they create a soundscape filled with twang, warm harmonies, and true honky tonk, just as this music should be experienced.
If you love artists like Loretta Lynn, Emmylou Harris, Willie Nelson, or Texas western swing, this is a concert you won't want to miss.
Sunday, August 23 at 7:00 PM at Herr Nilsen. A rare opportunity to experience one of the strongest voices in modern country music, with a band of the absolute highest caliber.
