Erik Lukashaugen - Børli poems, songs & such

Erik Lukashaugen is often referred to as the "bard of the forest" – with roots in forest Finnish culture and songs shaped by the poetry of nature. With two critically acclaimed albums dedicated to Hans Børli's poetry, as well as his own celebrated lyrics, this artist from Elverum has created his own expression where the mundane is at the center. His breakthrough came with the Børli album "From a Laborer's Memoirs" in 2013, and since then, Lukashaugen has played over 1000 concerts across the country, released seven albums, received several awards, and established himself as one of Norway's busiest folk artists. At Folk i Storgata, Lukashaugen will be joined by electric guitarist Bjørn Håkon Håkonsen. The performance will feature both Børli songs and some entirely new and darker pieces suitable for the pre-Christmas season. Plus Børli and more. The audience can expect jovial humor, strong lyrics, sparkling guitar play, and songs that smell of chopped wood and coffee over an open fire. NB! Limited seating available. Doors open at 18:00. Concert starts at 19:00.
