SVS proudly welcomes back genre-recalcitrant, multi-instrumentalist Hans Martin Austestad to our airwaves!

The outcome is a seamless flux of his musical influences in tandem with his own versatile ideas.

Prepare yourselves for a wild and inspiring ride! Happy listening! x

In this mix Gro-Marthe Dickson takes on a musical journey through the wonderfully hearty, raw country that is Scotland focussing on her ancestral routes and, specifically, her Grannie Christina C. Dickson.

Since passing in 1958, G-M has only met her via family pictures and memories. Her Grandad never spoke of her while he was alive, and G-M regrets she was too unknowing to ask. They met and married during the WWII; he, my Grandad, a Norwegian sailor (and whaler) and she, Grannie, working in a brewery in Glasgow. They moved to Norway after the war. This mix reflects their story.

These are a few of the songs G-M connects to what memory she has made up of her Grannie, but also “her” Scotland, getting to know the quart Scottish part of herself. The music spans from sad via empowering to humorous, and from old to new tunes, singers and musicians. G-M is happy to tell you that the journey goes on - there must be a reason she cries when she hears bagpipes.. Thank you for listening!
