Berdon Kirksaether - Mirror of a Mountain (2022)

Berdon Kirksaether is a Norwegian composer, guitarist, singer and music producer. He is a veteran on the Norwegian blues scene, most notably through his work in CIA, arguably one of the finest bluesbands in the country in their prime. They toured Norway extensively during the nineties and released two critically acclaimed records. As well as being composer, singer and guitarist in CIA, Berdon has been working in several musical genres throughout the last 25 years, such as: poprock, acoustic, jazz, rap, latin and blues/roots and rock.

Berdon's latest projects include a variety of styles ranging from his bluesrock trio The Ground, Gjermund Andresen & Berdon Kirksaether (Folk/Roots, acoustic outfit), Twang Bar Kings (blues) and Norwegian rockband Ukrutt. This versatility characterizes his new all instrumental album "Ray Of Light" where Berdon brings together a wide palette of moods and musical colours with more than a hint to the desolate and remote Nordic nature. Together with his long time partner and brother in arms, Stein Tumert, Berdon takes the listener on a journey through nature, mind and imagination.
