The legendary Sami-Norwegian artist and activist Mari Boine, one of the most recognized living legends we have, is coming to the Festival in Geiranger on September 28, 2024!
Mari Boine is known for being a musical pioneer who breaks boundarie. She does not easily fit into a specific musical category, but the term "World Music" in its broadest sense may be the most appropriate. Boine's music is inspired by jazz, folk music, rock, and electronica.
Mari Boine recently appeared in the TV2 success "Hver gang vi møtes" in 2024, where she performed alongside artists such as Ingrid Helene Håvik from Highasakite, Matoma, Ramón, William Kristoffersen, Emelie Hollow, and Odin Staveland from Vamp. The show provided many unique moments and exciting interpretations from Mari.
Boine has also recently released the album "Amame" together with another Norwegian musical great, pianist Bugge Wesseltoft. The collaboration has been fantastically received, and the album has been described as one of the year's strongest, receiving six dice rolls from several reviewers.
After many years in the music industry, Mari Boine still manages to surprise by discovering something completely new within herself, something we have never heard before. We can only look forward to an evening with one of the country's foremost voices and her excellent band.
