Dag Erik Oksvold

Herr Nilsen – Thursday 5 November at 21:00 Experience an evening of genuine country music when Dag Erik Oksvold takes the stage at Herr Nilsen. With his velvety voice, warm delivery and solid stage presence, he has established himself as one of Norway's most exciting country artists. Many discovered Dag Erik through The Voice in 2023, where he impressed greatly and finished in a strong 5th place. His debut single "Love You More" also made an international impression with as much as 16 weeks on the American MusicRow Breakout Chart, and in 2024 he secured a fine 5th place in the Melodi Grand Prix final together with Anne Fagermo with the self-composed song "Judge Tenderly Of Me". His music is deeply rooted in the classic country tradition, inspired by legends such as Merle Haggard, Vince Gill, Jim Reeves and Buck Owens. Over the past year he has toured the country together with Elisabeth Andreassen and delighted audiences with genuine joy of playing and strong songs. At Herr Nilsen he is joined by one of Norway's foremost steel guitarists, Roar Øien (Too Far Gone, The Waterboys). Together they offer an atmospheric evening of timeless country classics, their own favourites and samples from Dag Erik's upcoming album. If you love genuine country with soul, strong melodies and first-class musicians, this is a concert you won't want to miss.
