S�rum reached the final stage of Norwegian Melodi Grand Prix in 2004 and released his critically acclaimed debut album Pr�ysen in 2010. In 2013 he surprised many with what must be the world history's first soul album in totning - an album that attracted so much enthusiasm that the summer after he was invited to be the opening artist when Stevie Wonder visited Norway.

In autumn last year S�rum released his third album "Audience 1: 1" where the lyrics deals about intimate relationships, risk and uncertainty in acquaintances and situations where much is at stake.

Knut Anders S�rum is an artist with a lot of heart. He is a great communicator and has a reputation of delivering sensational concerts.

We look forward to hearing him lead an amazing band both Friday and Saturday in Alexandraparken during this year's festival.
