About this concert
To mektige, unge band slår sine musikalske og kreative krefter sammen, med et helt unikt musikalsk resultat. Den psykedeliske power-trioen Kanaan og folkemusikk-innovatørene i Ævestaden er begge blant landets travleste og mest hyllede orkestre.
Med albumet "Langt, langt vekk" har de to bandene skapt et enestående album. Norsk folkemusikk og rock har blitt kombinert flere ganger tidligere, men ingenting høres ut som dette. Kanaan bringer sin jazz/psykedelia på et musikalsk grunnfjell av improvisasjon og jamming til bords. Ævestadens moderne folktronica tar i bruk en rekke eldgamle og tradisjonsrike instrumenter, i tillegg til tydelige spor av svensk folkemusikk. Resultatet har blitt noe virkelig nyskapende, der identiteten til begge band skinner tydelig gjennom.
På "Langt, langt vekk" får du folketoner, slåtter og lovsang i skjønn forening med nykomponerte, storslåtte verk. Det er kompromissløst, dvelende og progressivt. Ikke minst viser det en imponerende helhet, gitt de to bandenes svært forskjellige musikalske utgangspunkt. Feler, kuhorn, kraviklyre, munnharpe, synther, flerstemt kor, tunge gitarer og en tordnende rytmeseksjon. Musikalsk er det imponerende allsidig, samtidig som det har blitt en smakfull plate.
Power-trioen Kanaan har siden 2021 sluppet fire album på Jansen Records, og de er allerede oppe i syv studioalbum og ett live-album siden de platedebuten i 2018. Bandet slo gjennom med psykedelisk, jazz-inspirert rock, men har gradvis beveget seg i retning av stadig tyngre musikk, der de siste studioalbumene har blitt omtalt som stoner-rock. Kanaan består av Eskild Myrvoll, Ask Vatn Strøm og Ingvald André Vassbø og bandet vant Spellemann i kategorien rock i 2021.
Ævestaden er en moderne folkemusikk-trio som kombinerer tradisjonelle instrumenter og folketoner med elektronisk musikk i et særegent og nyskapende lydbilde. Bandet består av norske Eir Vatn Strøm (søster av Ask Vatn Strøm i Kanaan) og Kenneth Lien, samt svenske Levina Storåkern. De mottok Edvard-prisen i 2023 for samarbeidsalbumet Jag är sen igjen sammen med Benedikt og deres andre album Solen var bättre där vant prisen for beste folkemusikk på den svenske Manifestgalan.

Kanaan Biography
Kanaan produce so much music that their fuzz pedals are hardly switched off between each practice session. Once again, the young power trio now step out of the rehearsal room, and with them in tow is the brand new album Downpour.
It’s not difficult to hear that this is a continuation of their last album, Earthbound. Indeed, many of the ideas on Downpour came about when they recorded their previous record in Athletic Sound in Halden, where Downpour was also recorded. The heaviest songs on the album are a continuation of the idea of "The Great riff" and the feeling of triumphant ecstasy when one good riff is replaced by another. Bands like Kyuss, MC5, Sleep and Hawkwind are still great sources of inspiration – while Needlepoint and Dungen are also important markers for the more melodic material on the album.
You truly have to hold tight and not fall out of your chair when Kanaan blast out the monster riffs on songs like "Orbit", "Solaris pt. 2" and not least "Amazon", where they are joined by one of Norway's most kick-ass guitarists, Hedvig Mollestad. All three members of the band have long been fans of Mollestad and her music, and the fact that she is on their record is a dream come true.
The band themselves say they feel that the chemistry and songwriting on this record, to a greater extent, allows them to really own the rock language that they flirted with on Earthbound, and it feels like a worthy sequel to a record that has since become very important in the band’s history. It’s hard not to agree with that.
Since Kanaan released their fourth album Earthbound on Jansen Records in November 2021, they’ve also managed to release the 27-minute long single "Beyond" and the session album Diversions vol. 1 – Softly through Sunshine, before they now release Downpour. There are no days off in the calendars of Eskild Myrvoll, Ingvald André Vassbø and Ask Vatn Strøm.
