GURO VON GERMETEN (NO)

Described as Kaizer Orchestras creepy little sister, a female Tom Waits, Kurt Weill’s great grandchild, Kate Bush on Piaf- pills or the woman that brings a blush to Stephen King face: the Norwegian singer Guro von Germeten, and her little red accordion, stands out as delightfully burlesque with melodic boldness and French Second World War-ambiance. Her music never lacks passion, nor decadence, and her classically trained «crying cat in the night-voice» brings you every song, as was it her last in life; screaming, whispering or just by sounding extremely beautifully, all with a twist of Balkan beats, Circus jazz and a touch of Film noir.

”She is an accordion siren” Geoff Berner, new- klezmer legend.

“Norway can promote not only oil and win its electricity from hydropower. Norway can also give rise to vocal and musical virtuoso who give the rest of Europe and other countries a lesson in what all is possible with one voice.” Süd Deutsche Zeitung
