Info
Island of Sound
The island of Rolla is tiny and sparsely populated – a mere 900 people live here. On A Place Called Home, Oddgeir Berg takes us to this, his father’s birthplace, for a concept album about the magic of nature, the spaces hidden in memory, and the bonds that family provides.
The music was written with a new trio line-up and during a period of personal turmoil, including a cancer diagnosis for Berg’s mother, and the worries which accompanied her treatment. As one would expect, the music feels intimate and pastoral, mostly slower-paced and introspective.
But there are also moments of gentle exploration here as well as a beautiful bass solo by new member Audun Ramo. It is an invitation to a journey – to make any place your home.
