DAVE STEVENS BAND Americana in Trondheim
With a style that pushes the boundaries between Americana and Rock n’ Roll, their Nordic vibe is something you haven’t heard before! Debut single “Tell Me When” hit the airwaves in 2023 with a classic Americana sound and the sold out release concert at Trondheim rock club Cafe 3B topped off an incredible year. 2024 started off with a live radio performance on NRK P1 followed by the release of single “Sleeping Dogs”. Their new song reveals a darker more powerful side of the band.
Performing live and driving each other to try new musical ideas has been inspiring and has led to incredible artistic creativity. They recently returned from a trip to Lithuania where they performed and jammed with artists from all over Europe, in addition to arranging and recording new music.
Frontman Dave Stevens hails from the hills of Indiana, USA and lived in the high desert of the American southwest before moving to Norway. After years of developing his solo sound, he had the fortune of crossing paths with Tore Fallet (bass), Bjørn Tore Hals (keys) and Stein-Roger Arnøy (drums). Together they created the band in Trondheim in 2022.
The journey since then has been incredible: from TV and radio performances, interviews and concerts, they have developed a unique sound that attracts an ever growing audience. Over 100 fans crowded into their backyard concert at Iladagan on June 15th in the Bohemian district of Trondheim. They then celebrated American Independence Day with a July 4th concert at Krambua in Trondheim.
The beautiful island of Lauvøya, off the coast of Norway, was the destination for their latest concert. They performed at Lauvøya Garage Festival where they shared the stage with Norwegian music legends Terje Tysland, Casino Steele, Ottar “Big Hand” Johansen, Petter Wavold, Børge Rømma and Becca.
