Feet on the ground and heart in art
Sigmund Groven releases the first album – in a series of three – with selected recordings from his 40-year career as a recording artist. The collection also includes new and previously unreleased recordings. Harmonica Hits contains – as the title suggests – several of Groven’s most famous songs. Sigmund Groven has blown new secrets out of the harmonica for almost 50 years! Stunning safe in style and direction, all the way.
From Sigmund’s first LP "Så Spiller Vi Harmonica" (1975) to his latest album, he has received great critical acclaim and followers all around the world. Almost as long as he has traveled and communicated his music, he has also composed music that adds genuine feel to the Norwegian seasons. Every month corresponds perfectly perfect with one or more songs by Sigmund Groven. Other songs bubbles of a more urban riff, for example, when the harmonica presents slides of the July afternoon in the big city – at a table in an appealing bistro. It can convey a carnival in a song so fresh and fiery arranged that it became a hit. Grovens harmonica gives tone to so many places. Norways harmonica-king has his feet on the ground and his heart in art – that both new and old listeners experience with this collection.
