Uniquely diverse and vastly experienced Norwegian multi-instrumentalist Michael Krumins
releases his debut solo album in March 2023. Embracing a kaleidoscope of international
influences, styles, and instruments, this global artist brings a quarter-century
of performing with some of Europe and Africa’s most experimental and captivating projects
to this long-awaited collection. Krumins seamlessly marries virtuoso progressive metal,
world music, and dark neo folk into something all his own.
His rare talent helped land Krumins’ first band a record deal when he was just 16. Yet this
was just the springboard for a dizzying career that has included a master’s degree in world
music, touring across Europe and the Americas with prog rock band Green Carnation and
goth metal act Sirenia, and forming adventurous world music collective Nutopia. With
influences including Arabic, Balkan, and Turkish genres, Nutopia was invited to perform
and collaborate with local artists in Tanzania and Mozambique, with Krumins playing to an
audience of 60,000 in Maputo.
Truly a global citizen, Krumins has lived in Germany, The Netherlands, Mozambique, and
on an Aegean island, constantly absorbing sounds and cultures. This deep well of
international experience, mastery of multiple stringed instruments, and a cinematic world
view irresistibly mingle like never before on his first solo release.
