BERNHOFT
Jarle Bernhoft has a new album coming out in 2023, a fact that surprises the man himself. The Norwegian singer – songwriter and multi – instrumentalist intended to have a break from recording this year. Now, he finds himself reaching back out to the world with new music an d a new outlook, propelling himself back to a global stage with a renewed ambition.
You may have first come across a young Jarle as lead singer of rock power quartet Span . He lived in North London where he enjoyed critical acclaim and a cult following. Aft er they disbanded in 2005, he went solo, and soul, as Bernhoft . He employed live looping techniques, using a loop pedal to layer his vocals and instrumental parts, creating intricate and dynamic arrangements. The single “C’mon Talk,” became a viral sensat ion showcasing this, earning Bernhoft millions of views on YouTube and introducing him to a global audience. This culminated in the international success of ‘Islander’ (2014), an album that explored themes of identity and self – discovery, blending elements of folk, pop, and R&B.
