Hi there everyone and thanks for subscribing:) Slowly the pandemic situation is alowing us to move more freely. It is time for summer holiday, witch is spend here in Norway with family and friends. I have also been having some small gigs witch felt releaving after months of being unemployed. Further I have got some studio work done for another artist in the country genre soon to be presented.
I have uploaded a new song, "Scars hard to heal". It is not often I write a 7 minute song, but this one is very special to me. The change in the song between minor and major is a symbol of the strong and proud people of Norway that has made this such a great nation. It was a song that was hard to write and perform. The music and lyrics is about the political mass murder that took place at a social democratic youth camp on the island of Utøya July 22 here in Norway back in 2011.
It´s a song written to honor all the victims of this tragedy and the victims of other meaningless violence carried out through out the world.
I strongly belive that it is important for us to remember tragedies like this and to keep on teaching our children about love and affection, the great gift to forgive but not forget and most of all to teach them the great value of another human beings life. Take good care of each other and stay safe:) All the best -Kris

Hi everyone:) I really hope you all are staying as safe as possible these days. This pandemic situation is still not over yet. It is starting to wear on us all, but I hope it will be over soon. In the meantime; Don´t forget the simple everyday precautions and try to help out wherever you can.
I guess we all are really missing gigs these days. Hopefully we are back on track within a few months. Unfortunately all festivals and other venues in Norway are cancelled this summer. I just put out a video on my site for you to see from a gig we had a while back @ the great Kongsberg Jazz Festival in Norway. I would also like to use this oppertunity to thank all my fans for all the great support in this difficult times and you all here at N1M for sharing, recommending and for all the positive feedback we get. Me and my band are doing other projects like streaming, recording and writing new songs. So I really hope and strongly believe that something good will come out of this bad situation we are facing. Hang in there everyone, stay safe, take care of each other and we´ll see each other hopefully in not to long. Much love -Kris

A big thank you to everyone that has recommended and shared - Much love -Kris

I have had some requests for where to buy my songs. Usually I still have CD´s for sale at concerts, but in this corona times thats not possible. But anyway there is a possibility to buy and download my songs on iTunes, Google Play etc.
Btw. there is a woman (miss Farck) from Romania that either did some bad research not long ago and thought my name was pretty cool and desided to use Kris Ivy as her new artist name. I actually have a copyright on that, but I guess there is a few people out there that just don´t care to much about legal rights etc.....But I wount bother you with that....
Ps. My song "Kiss´n Make Up" is now Global #2 in the genre Latin Jazz and still climbing...., so let´s see if we can reach the sweet #1 spot !
Anyway, I really appreciate you listening, sharing and keeping my music alive. Without you guys there would be no fun, so thank you again -much love -Kris
