Reidar Jensen

The songs of the Song Poet and Musician Reidar Jensen from the Norwegian coastal town of Bergen are full of melancholy and longing. They contain critical views on society, but combined with hope and positivism. As a composer and experienced lyricist, he has embedded his own personal life experiences into a multifaceted musical garment, giving them a very individual color with his well timbred voice and accentuated guitar playing.

In this way he speaks directly to each listener and gives insights into his personality and his clear view behind the scenes. Anyone who gets involved in his songs, will be led to contemplation. At the same time, they contain surprises to make you dream. In this intimate and very emotional music Reidar Jensen lives his own life dream.

“FINEST ACOUSTIC POETRY”, Reidar Jensen’s trade mark, offers a varied repertoire of life- and love songs, spanning from thoughtful themes to current topical songs. He has always remained loyal to his musical roots of such greats as Bob Dylan, Donovan, Leonard Cohen to James Taylor, but has clearly developed his very distinctive artistic profile over the years, moving beyond the usual main stream of traditional Singer-/ Songwriters.
