Intimkonsert med Tønes Trio

Tønes has a unique ability to observe and convey the situations of everyday life. He writes songs where the simple is allowed to accommodate more than it may first seem. On stage, he is joined by multi-instrumentalists Anne Lise Frøkedal and Erlend Aasland. Ho is a peculiar musical force and voice. Just as strong with the guitar, as behind the piano. Many also know her from Frøkedal and Familien, I Was a King or King Husky.

Erlend is a Sandnes hawk who has not yet met an instrument he has not mastered. He is also drawn to bands as diverse as Randi Tytingvåg trio and Øystein Sunde, and has inherited the voice of Johnny Cash.

Tønes is Frank Tønnesen, and has released 11 albums, a good number of EPs and a novel. Frank is moderately interested in waldorf salad, but quite fond of firewood, birds and prince cake. Anne Lise is extremely good at stacking instruments and luggage in cars, and has a long-term plan to become a birdwatcher. Erlend does not have such long-term plans, but rides a cargo bike that has room for both instruments and kids.

Tønes, Anne Lise and Erlend create concert evenings that are never quite the same, but which contain a completely unique mix of humor and reflection.
