Singer, guitarist and songwriter Endre Olsen from Stord returns to Statsraaden, together with Hans-Olav Molde on drums, Ørjan Lægreid on bass and songs from across the entire catalogue.
The trilogy "Bøttevis med blått" (2018), "Baklengs tebake" (2021) and "Vekk meg lenger vekke" (2025) has moved from the delicate acoustic to the grand synth-pop and the rough country rock, and along the way gathered both stylish reviews and the Olav H. Hauge stipend.
In trio format Olsen & co breathe new life into the songs; the grand quickly becomes delicate and acoustic and the acoustic quickly becomes sweaty and electric.
