Jorn - Detail Upcoming Covers Album


At the end of last year, Jorn announced he was working on a covers album. Recently, the details regarding the album have been announced. It will be titled Heavy Rock Radio and Jorn Lande covers classics from artists and bands that have meant something special to him, and helped forge his own unique style. Enjoy the album trailer and find out the songs he will be covering.

Jorn says: "The most important thing was to treat these songs with respect towards the original versions, my goal was always to think that the original artist would be honoured and find my version relevant. At the same time my intention was never to try to compete with the original song and artist, but make it a strong alternative version to enjoy. At the same time it is a well deserved homage to these artists and bands, who influenced me strongly, and I have wanted to record these songs for quite some time but was always too busy writing and recording my own songs to make it happen. Originally I had a list of 40-50 songs I wanted to do, but I had to strip it down to about 15 songs before deciding on the final tracklist. This means that there are some unfinished business musically, and I will most likely record more of these songs in the future."

Since releasing the critically acclaimed Dracula: Swing Of Death album last year, Jorn has also been working on an album of brand new songs, which will be the successor to the 2013 album Traveller, to be released in early 2017.
