As a recording artist, the Norwegian music legend Ole Paus in 2013 announced his retirement when he released the triple album "Avslutningen". 80 000 copies were sold, resulting in it being his most successful album release ever.
He kept his promise for a long time. However, when the idea of doing a new album produced by Motorpsycho's Bent Sæther came up, his interest and lust for recording new music slowly started to come back.
It was, in every sense, a wild idea that had to mature for both Ole and Bent. After several meetings, studio sessions and miscellaneous discussions, they started to find a form and a direction that they both believed in.
Bent grabbed his bandmates from Motorpsycho - Hans Magnus Ryan and Tomas Järmyr, as well as their old friend Reine Fiske - and traveled with Ole to rural France to create a new album. And so, we are very pleased to announce that "Så nær, så nær" is being released on January 31st.
