Considered one of the greatest Norwegian singer/songwriters, Ole Paus has conquered for almost half a century and developed an impressive repertoire of more than 30 studio albums. This prolific troubadour regularly flaunts his ability to switch from one musical style to another—be it soul-searching ballads or lighthearted tunes. He has the lyrical ability of a contemporary poet yet his his work is rooted deeply in the traditions of the folk genre. A published author as well, Paus often slips satirical social commentary into his work.
