Aladdin Oil + Mikkel Rev // Bergen Realistforening // Kvarteret

Aladdin Oil

Aladdin Oil is a dynamic and talented quartet that mixes dad’s guitar-based record collection with a modern lyrical expression in Norwegian.
If you like rich guitar sound, vocal harmonies and clever lyrics, this should be right up your alley.

Mikkel Rev

Mikkel Rev combines folk rock and 1970s psychedelia. They present hardanger fiddle tunes in a rock outfit with electric guitar, drums, electric bass – and of course the hardanger fiddle. Between the tunes they also offer some singing. Want to dance springar or utepåbyendans, or simply take in folk rock in big gulps? Then just drop by Kvarteret!

“In Norway there are several excellent musicians who combine jazz and folk music. Those are the ones I’ve been most interested in in recent years. But then along comes Mikkel Rev and literally rocks my ideals. Alongside the trio Resjemheia, they pave a new and exciting path for this energetic and powerful music. An excellent release from a band I highly recommend.”
