Madrugada

The stage is set for one of the most anticipated reunions in Norwegian history when Madrugada takes over Oslo Spektrum two nights in a row, 1 and 2 February 2019. Now they are also confirmed for the Kongsberg Jazz Festival.

The concerts mark the 20th anniversary of the band's legendary debut album, Industrial Silence. On stage these evenings are three of the four original members, Sivert Høyem, Frode Jacobsen and Jon Lauvland Pettersen.

Madrugada signed his first record contract in the summer of 1998, and in September of the following year, his debut album "Industrial Silence", sensationally, went straight to first place on the VG list. The album has remained one of Norwegian rock's truly great classics.

The story of Madrugada's breakthrough is truly one of the music legends in Norway. Virgin Records offered the band a record deal in the summer of 1998. The agreement was reportedly signed on the hood of a car outside Oslo Børs, and gave the band unlimited confidence and studio time to realize their big visions. September of the following year, the debut album "Industrial Silence" sensationally went straight to first place on the VG-lista. The album has become one of Norwegian rock's truly great classics. Over the next ten years, Madrugada released four more studio albums, the last, self-titled, was begun before guitarist Robert Burås passed away in 2007 and was released in 2008. In their ten years as a band, Madrugada received five Spellemannprize, including "Arets Spellemann" in 2005 , and two Alarm prizes, as well as a number of sales trophies.

Over the next ten years, Madrugada released four more studio albums. The last self-titled album was started before guitarist Robert Burås passed away in 2007 and released in 2008.

Madrugada was continuously in the top tier of Norwegian bands and had a significant career outside Norway.
