Darling West

Darling West are Spellemann winners and stars in Norwegian Americana and alternative country.

In 2023, they released their fifth studio album – Cosmos – and as if that wasn't enough, they also recorded and released a Christmas album – Lights – based on the somewhat legendary NRK concert from Christmas 2022. Now, however, it's all about a summer filled with festivals and music, and the band, which has been described as one of Norway's best live bands, has sinister plans to deliver its best festival set ever.

Those who have seen the band before know that you can expect top-shelf musicianship. Those who are on their first journey into Darling West's world can look forward to guitar finesse, smooth vocal harmonies and a feel-good atmosphere.

West coast pop, cosmic folk, Americana, call it what you want – there are even touches of desert blues – Darling West is all about the joy of music and the ability to communicate, humor and vulnerability, and they hereby invite you into their universe.

This will be perfect for the Rootsville Americana Stage at Notodden Blues Festival.
