Pumpegris is a folk-fusion band that playfully mixes the old and new, the humorous and serious. Inspired by Norwegian folk music, west African music, shoegaze and the singer songwriter genre they make pop music. They focus on groove, Norwegian traditional dance tunes and witty yet bittersweet lyrics. Together with folk music label Ta:lik and producer Tuva Syvertsen they released their first album in February 2025. In their release they pick up references from West-African music, rap, singer-songwriter and shoegaze, taking a departure from witch-like folkrock into something more groovy, dirty and intimate. Traditional Norwegian dance tunes become pop-ballads!

Den kanadiske låtskriveren med band som blander alt-country, rock’n’roll, punkenergi og ballader.
Norwegian youth have taken it upon themselves to explore their musical roots. Naturally, this intertwining of past and present creates a beautiful tapestry of folk music, jazz, and pop—both timeless and highly relevant.
ULD, a Norwegian trio of young women, has truly found immense joy in this musical exploration. And that joy is contagious, reaching far beyond the stage.
The band is new but has already captivated audiences in their home country, with all their first concerts selling out.
Look forward to an intimate and powerful performance by ULD at G!, taking place from July 17-19, 2025.

Malin Pettersen is a captivating live performer whose acoustic sound draws from country, folk, and jazz traditions. On stage, she commands attention with a clear, achingly soulful voice and an intimate presence that turns every performance into a shared experience.
With songwriting depth inspired by Townes Van Zandt and the emotional resonance of Gillian Welch and Alison Krauss, Pettersen crafts intimate portraits of love, life, and the people who navigate both. Her latest album, Wildflower, has earned widespread critical acclaim, cementing her place as one of the most compelling voices in contemporary Americana.
Norway's Highasakite emerged in 2012 with a sound that fused icy synths and dramatic indie pop with a more organic percussive rock element. After establishing themselves with their debut, the band achieved widespread success with their 2014 follow-up, Silent Treatment, which topped the Norwegian charts and remained in the Top 40 for two years. 2016's Camp Echo marked their second number one, setting the table for Highasakite's 2019 release, Uranium Heart. The band formed when vocalist Ingrid Håvik met drummer Trond Bersu while studying jazz at the Trondheim Jazz Conservatory. Starting as a duo, they soon recruited producer Thomas Dahl to help out on bass and guitar, while also adding Øystein Skar to play synthesizer. Once bonded, they spent six months working on their debut album. All That Floats Will Rain was released in early 2012 by Riot Factory Records in Norway, and the tightly wound, dramatic style of indie rock on display found favor with critics. After the album's release, the band began to play live shows, adding Marte Eberson on synthesizer and Kristoffer Lo on guitar, percussion, flugabone, and tuba to fill out the sound. The band played many prestigious festivals during 2012, including Øya in Norway and Iceland Airwaves. While working on a follow-up album, Highasakite turned to the U.S. market in early 2013 with the release of the In and Out of Weeks EP (which consisted of the first five songs from All That Floats Will Rain) on Propeller Records. Subsequently, they entered the studio with Norwegian producer Kåre Christoffer Vestrheim (Ida Jenshus, Katzenjammer) and recorded their second full-length, Silent Treatment, which arrived in 2014. The album was a major success in Norway, reaching number one on the pop charts and earning Highasakite a Spellemannprisen (the Norwegian equivalent of a Grammy Award) for Pop Group of the Year. In 2016, they returned with the more politically minded follow-up, Camp Echo, which featured the singles "Someone Who'll Get It" and "Golden Ticket." That same year, Highasakite performed at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert. The non-album single "5 Million Miles" appeared in 2017, followed a year later by "Out of Order," the lead single from the band's fourth album, Uranium Heart, which was released in January 2019. ~ Tim Sendra, Rovi

One of Norway's most respected artists performing with a full band.
Scandinavian pop singer Bertine Zetlitz is a well-known artist in Europe who makes catchy disco-influenced dance-pop with a slightly dark, ironic edge. Involved in music from a young age, Zetlitz began writing music just prior to her teens and ultimately studied classical music at college. After graduating, she began pursuing a career in pop music and eventually released her debut album, Morbid Late Night Show, in 1998. Beautiful So Far followed in 2000, featuring production by famed Cardigans producer Tore Johansson. Since that time Zetlitz has released a handful of albums, including Rollerskating in 2004, My Italian Greyhound in 2006, and Electric Feet in 2012. In 2015, Zetlitz released her seventh, studio album, Tikamp, which balanced her love of both electro and acoustic pop. Included on the album was the single "Sett At Vi Sier Det Sånn," which featured the Dum Dum Boys' Prepple Houmb. ~ Matt Collar, Rovi
