Country. Jazz.
The Nattjazz audience has a major experience to look forward to as we now present the concert premiere of the collaboration between The Red Barn and Bjørn Tomren. The project is set to release an album in 2026, and with Tomren’s distinctive expression and the new darlings of country jazz, The Red Barn, it quickly becomes clear that this is a perfect match.
After a year of glowing international reviews for their debut album *The Red Barn*, the quartet is now expanding. The Red Barn’s open, organic sonic landscapes and Tomren’s unique lyrical voice create a new, playful, and vulnerable universe.
Bjørn Tomren has been a favorite on the Norwegian music scene for many years. The members of The Red Barn are involved in a wide range of other projects such as The Real Ones, Sigrid Moldestad, Spidergawd, Espen Horne, and many more—and they bring a wealth of versatile expressions into the music.
