Maldito on Musk

There will be a party at Moskus, the evening before May 1st:

Maldito was formed in Liverpool in 2015 by Vegard Ring, Bendik Brevik, Gard Rognskog and Jon Olav Alstad, while they were studying at the renowned Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts.

With inspiration from 70s rock and prog, combined with a touch of 90s pop-rock, the band has created its own unique musical expression.

As winners of the Union Blues Cup in 2019, Maldito has performed on nearly 90 stages in Norway, England and Germany.

They also represented Norway in the International Blues Challenge in Memphis in 2020, where they reached the quarterfinals. The band has played at festivals such as Notodden Bluesfestival, Irchenberg Festival, Eutin Bluesfestival, Norwegian Blues Adventure in London, and Øyafestivalen.

In 2023, they supported Grammy winners Larkin Poe at Tapperiet in Trondheim.

"Maldito is the band that said no to writing songs with Paul McCartney because they thought it was more important to continue the tour they were on in Germany instead of canceling it."

"That kind of thing commands respect." – Øyvind Rønning, Dagbladet, 2024

Contact Light is timeless, un-Norwegian, energetic, vibrant, red-hot rock'n'roll. My favorites: 'Moon and the Stars', 'The Clown', 'Balloon' and the epic ending 'Nothing'.
