Folkrock from Norway inspired from the British Isles

	British and Irish folkrock with guts and atmosphere is the trademark of FolkPort. Their varied musical concept covers everything between punchy trad.- and dancetunes and poetic ballads and instrumentals. With their unique joy in performance, relaxed stage presence and a perfect mix between their own and more traditional music, FolkPort creates a mutual music pub mood. Whether it's on a large festival stage or at a smaller concert venue doesn't matter. It happens every time. You can set your mind at peace with epic ballads or sing along to nasty drinking tunes but you will surely not be able to sit still when FolkPort stir up their punchy dancetunes, jigs & reels. After some years on the road with their music FolkPort is a band in demand for festivals and concert venues in Norway and abroad and they perform at their fourth Skagen Festival in Denmark in 2008. Go to list of past and forthcoming gigs FolkPort Latest News: Three very different gigs at Skagen Festival in Denmark in july were great fun: FolkPort closed the night in a totally packed festival tent at Torvescenen thursday. Then FolkPort Acoustic did a very inspired matinee concert at Ruths hotel in old Skagen friday afternoon, and at last the total party concert at the Skaw Bar late night saturday. A great festival experience before FolkPort took some time off after five concerts in eight days. Now we have worked intensively on a project to develop our music further integrating Jan Larsen on el. guitar. FolkPort was ready to perform again with new songs and new sound in February and the first gig in Hønefoss was very well received! | >>> Visit our Festival Album | Click for larger covers Online mp3-player FolkPort's musicians have experience from a broad range of musical styles: Ørjan Arntsen fiddle / mandolin / vocals Sølvi Eriksen Kvam vocals / piano / whistles / accordeon / el. pipes Bjørn Fyen vocals / acoustic guitar Jan Larsen el. guitar Hallgeir Myhre drums / percussion / vocals Tore Tambs-Lyche acoustic bass guitar / el.bass / vocals
