Artist Info: Gnom

gnom was a Norwegian folk group. It was founded in Bryne, Rogaland, Norway by childhood friends Janove Ottesen and Geir Zahl in 1996 following a brief transitional period after the dissolution of their previous band, Blod, snått & juling. The primary line-up consisted of Ottesen and Zahl, both on lead vocals and guitar; Rune Solheim on drums, Helge Risa on pump organ and piano, and Rolf Prestø on double bass. Jon Sjøen replaced Prestø following his departure from the group in 1999. [read more...]
