Pantheon I

Formed in late 2002 and hailing from the city of Oslo in Norway, Pantheon I is an extreme metal band that combines brutality, aggression and speed with heart-wrenching melancholy. Rather than resorting to the use of synths with string samples, the symphonic aspects of their music are highlighted by the use of the cello. The current line-up is composed of KVEBEK on guitar and vocals (DEN SAAKALDTE, ex-1349), SAGSTAD on guitar (TROLLFEST, SARKOM), T.R.S. on bass (1349, DEN SAAKALDTE), MADS G on drums (THE ALL SEEING I, ZEENON), and LIVE JULIANNE on cello.

Appointed folk musician of the year in 2010, she is by far one of Norway’s most requested folk music artists. Her repertoire holds a large variety of songs and tunes, all delightfully conveyed through Moldestad’s magical music universe.

Robert Post

His family never owned a telly, in fact Robert never even saw one until he was 8, but they did have a radio and a whole host of musical instruments. His first love was a drum kit but the rest of his family didn't quite appreciate his passion for hitting things very hard and he was forced to learn the trumpet. His natural talent soon flourished and once he had mastered one instrument he quickly moved onto another until he had a whole arsenal of sounds at his disposal.
