Hans Graasvold's red shoes will flap up on the stage, expectedly or unexpectedly, with groups and soloists:
Bullmilk (Knut Rognan, Atle Aamodt, Oddvar Stensrud, Sven Nilsen, Kalle Aasland, Knut Syvertsen & Hans Graasvold) Brettville (Alf Brettville Jensen, Knut Hem, Bjørn Holm & Hans Graasvold) Trond Granlund, Tom Paxton, Torhild Ostad, Otto Jespersen, Bente Kure & Leif Ernstsen, Øystein Sunde, Kari Svendsen, Tony Shehan, Peter Abrahamsen, Fleming Fiol, Lillebjorn Nilsen, Johnny Silvo...
For all to know: this page is put up by Hans Graasvold fans! The genious himself will take over when he understands that the trancission from a cellullar phone to a PC is like from a melodeon to an accordeon. Help welcomed!
Here it goes:
Ever since Hans landed his first paid gig at the age of 12, he has been hooked on music. Since then he has been practicing, practicing and practicing.
Which is easy to hear...
Slightly to the right of the stage, casually dressed, with his persisting pedaling trademarks, his red basket ball shoes, playing acoustic guitar, electric guitar or 5-string banjo, and with a lit cigarette hanging from his lips -there you have Hans Graasvold, Norwegian string picker par exelence.
Hans is among the musicians who have played 'everywhere with everybody', from the small smoky taverns to the big festival scenes, and with all from childhood friends trough the Norwegian elite to international stars like Eric Weissberg, Bill Keith and Tom Paxton.
In Denmark Hans is maybe best known as a member of the band Bullmilk, who has played most major and minor festivals like Skagen, Midtfyn, Strib and Tønder.
Hans can not tell how many times he has appeared on radio and TV, and if you ask him how many CD's he has participated on the answer is: 'I believe it will add up to some times 10...'

Hei onkel Hans! Med tanke på at jeg bor i Oslo traktene (altså ganske nerme sentrum) har jeg veldig lyst til å bli oppdatert på neste, nermeste konsert og faktisk få den med meg. Si ifra! Mvh en ihugget Caroline "Svingtrapp!"

For en vidunderlig avslutning du hadde på Havnescenen søndag. Stå på scenen med alt i alt 3 andre artister - helt fantastisk. Og avslutningen med Johnny Silvo og bælj-spilleren var utrolig morsomt og ikke minst flott å lytte til. Kanskje noe for 11musikk?
