Welcome to a concert with The Red Barn & Bjørn Tomren! After a year of glowing international reviews for their debut album The Red Barn, the quartet is back with a new album in 2026 – this time a collaborative project with vocalist Bjørn Tomren. The result is a musical encounter where jazz, americana, space-country, and folk music blend together into an intimate and exciting expression. In the meeting of Tomren's distinctive vocal universe and The Red Barn's open, organic soundscape, an expression emerges that is both playful, raw, and vulnerable. The Red Barn is a quartet that weaves together threads from jazz, folk music, and americana. The band consists of some of the region's busiest and most creative musicians, now united under the same barn roof. The project began with a shared love for the crossroads between jazz and americana and has been simmering for quite a while. With backgrounds in jazz, folk music, and americana, the band creates a unique and captivating sound that appeals to a wide audience. With listener-friendly compositions as a foundation, the musicians easily came together, forming a musical expression characterized by playfulness, patience, and a strong focus on building the musical core idea. The band comprises musicians Kåre Opheim, Toivo Fjose, Mathias Marstrander, and Aksel Røed. The members of The Red Barn are involved in many other musical projects and collaborate with renowned artists and bands including Sigrid Moldestad, The Real Ones, Vill Vill Vest favorites Treverket, GPO, Spidergawd, Havene, Espen Horne & Athletic Unit, Toivo Quintet, Terje Isungset, and many, many more. The four different musicians spice their creation with each of their varied expressions and an abundance of diverse experience.
