Mari Boine Turns 70 and Celebrates with an Anniversary Tour
The iconic Sámi-Norwegian artist and activist Mari Boine turns 70 this year, marking the occasion with an extensive anniversary tour.
For more than four decades, Mari Boine has been one of Norway’s most groundbreaking and influential artists. With an expression that moves seamlessly between joik, jazz, folk music, rock and electronic elements, she and her musicians have created a musical language entirely their own – one that continues to inspire generations of listeners, both in Norway and beyond.
Boine has been a powerful voice throughout her career, challenging boundaries and bringing Sámi culture, history and identity into the public sphere. At the same time, she has created music that unites audiences across borders and language barriers.
Recent years have also demonstrated that Boine remains an artist in constant development. After reaching a new and broader audience through Hver gang vi møtes, followed by extensive touring and new music, Mari Boine continues to evolve and renew her artistic expression.
This autumn, she invites audiences on a tour that looks back on an extraordinary career while also pointing towards the future. Audiences can expect powerful musical moments, songs from across her catalogue, including ALVA (her latest album), and an artist who still possesses the same strength, presence and artistic curiosity for which she has become known.
This autumn’s concerts offer a rare opportunity to experience a living legend alongside her exceptional band.
Duration:
Approx. 1 hour 30 minutes, without an interval.
