EkstremsportVeko: Big Bang


While working in Voss for the Extreme Sports Week I had the privilege of seeing one of Norway's most popular  bands Big Bang, how they've escaped my radar over these past few years is beyond me. Formed in 1992 by frontman Øystein Greni, Big Bang has been called the best live band in Norwegian music, and they definitely proved that. If it wasn't for their typical Norwegian look, I could picture the trio growing up in Memphis, Tennessee. One part Bad Company, one part The Raconteurs with echoes of John Fogerty, this trio proved what a modern rock concert should be,sing alongs, sex appeal, and lighters swaying in the air.
