Hailing from the fjords of Scandinavia, the Norwegian rock band Dreampilots is
embarking on their first North American album release titled “Comedown” slated for late
September 2009. On a recent trip to US music convention Dreampilots stole the
media’s attention and had them buzzing with their remarkable ability to craft penetrat-
ing lyrics and edgy, rock soundscapes. Dreampilots is a sonic experience and a band
that should not be missed on their follow-up national US tour slated for startup in late
fall 2009.
Originally started as a project called Salvation Street, the first seeds of Dreampilots
were sown by frontman, and former Word Records UK artist, Oddi Nessa, who set out
across the Norwegian countryside with guitar on his back, and a deep desire to share
his poetic musical tales with anyone who would listen. Oddi was soon joined by bass
player, Gulleiv Wee, a founding member of the platinum selling pop band The
September When, and production and keyboard maestro, Inge Engelsvold. The quartet
was complete with the addition of Karl Oluf Wennerberg on drums, who is also touring
and recording with the world renowned Universal Music Norway super-group a-ha. The
sound that emerged is an atmospheric, pop-rock assault that grabs the listener by the
shirt and demands to be listened to!
