about

Singer/songwriter Olav Larsen and his band The Alabama Rodeo Stars have just released their debut album “Love’s Come To Town”. And it’s a sensational debut we’re talking about. Inspired by everything from bluegrass and classic country to today’s Americana and pop music, Olav and his band have created something unique, both in terms of style and sound.

Olav Larsen writes the tunes and has a fantastic sense for gripping yet simple melodies. They are catchy without ever being too obvious. Instead they slowly sneak up on you, and before you know it you’ll be singing the words of »Unhappy/Dreamer« or »My Town« with a little smile on your face.

All thought Olav Larsen’s only 27 years old, he has no problem relating to Harland Howard’s famous quote: »Country music is three chords and the truth«. Simplicity is not only a key component in his music but also in his lyrics. They are believable, uncomplicated and have an almost candid and irresistible charm to them.

But where Olav Larsen & The Alabama Rodeo Stars really stand apart from the crowd, is in their way of presenting and playing the music. Recorded on vintage equipment in the mountains of Norway the sound is warm, dynamic, rich, detailed and very truthful and expressive. The band is extremely competent. Not only do they know where to play, but they also know where not to play their instruments, in order for the songs to appear as complete as possible. The band consists of:

Olav Larsen: Harmonica, guitar and vocals.
Mazz Swift: Fiddle and backing vocals.
Torje Fanebust Ås: Electric and upright bass.
Erlend Åsland: Electric guitar, banjo, pedal-steel and backing vocals.
Arne Andersen: Drums and percussion.
Jonny Engelsvoll: Piano, accordion, organ and backing vocals.
