Berdon Kirksaether is a Norwegian composer, guitarist, singer and music producer. He is a veteran on the Norwegian music scene, most notably through his work in CIA, arguably one of the finest blues bands in the country in their prime. They toured Norway extensively during the nineties and released two critically acclaimed records. As well as being a composer, singer and guitarist in CIA, Berdon has been working in several musical genres throughout the last 25 years, such as: pop, folk, jazz, rap, latin and blues, roots and rock.

Berdon's latest projects include a variety of styles ranging from blues rock with the Twang Bar Kings, folk/roots music with the duo Gjermund Andresen & Berdon Kirksaether, and rock with the Norwegian band Ukrutt. Furthermore, Berdon has released several solo albums with what he characterizes as airy Scandinavian nature music. Currently (fall 2017) Berdon is working on a new album with the Twang Bar Kings, a new solo album, as well as an album with his band Companeros. Berdon's music is published by Roller Records.
