TORA
TORA is a firework of a band fronted by Norway's new guitar hero Tora Dahle Aagård. She continues to make a name for herself with her unique talent, virtuosity, energy and playful musicianship, and the band garners rave reviews for their live shows.
TORA plays blues-inspired pop-rock and released its third album "Seventeen" in 2022. As with the Spellman-nominated previous album "Girls", the pop artist Tora emerges more and more clearly in the band's musical expression.
The highlights are lined up for guitar virtuoso Tora Dahle Aagård: Despite her relatively young age (28 years), she has already been on stage in London's own grand hall, the Royal Albert Hall, shared the main stage during the world's largest virtual guitar festival with legends such as Joe Bonamassa, Carlos Santana, St Vincent and John McLaughlin. International star musicians such as Aaron Sterling (John Mayer), Joey Landreth and Cory Wong appear on the records, and Tora has played with both Jennifer Batten (Michael Jackson's guitarist) and Paul Gilbert (Mr Big), as well as being a guest artist on the Norway tour with Trygve Skaug.
Tora is the International Ambassador for French Marceau Guitars, who have designed bespoke signature guitars in her name, and which are only sold in limited editions. Tora has over 160.000 followers Instagram; among them Hollywood legend Alec Baldwin, who has fallen in love with the talented guitarist.
Does anyone remember the concert TORA had for a limited number of audiences during the Kongsberg Jazz Festival 2021? Even strict coronary restrictions could not put a damper on a very excited audience in the backyard at Gamle Norge! We look forward to another visit!
