Influences
Good rock! From Led Zep to Def Lep. If it's good rock, it's good rock. Although Norway has been called in the press an "80's hair band style rock"
(think Bon Jovi...Winger...) our influences run deeper to the best bands of the 70's,80's and 90's ,and the band members collectively have been influenced by Hendrix,Clapton,Zep,Sabbath,Deep Purple, Dio, Bon Jovi,Rush,Yes,Kansas, Styx, Journey, Foreigner, SyroGyro, Steely Dan, Def Lepard, U2, Ramones, Queen, The Beatles,Rolling Stones and Todd Rundgren.

NORWAY is a 4-pc hard rock band from New Jersey, USA . Their indie debut album Night Dreams, was a smash hit in Europe among the fans of AOR, Melodic and Hard Rock, hailed by rock magazines worldwide.
That success led to signing a deal with acclaimed UK rock label Now & Then Records/Frontiers Records.
NORWAY's label debut, "Arrival", was recorded in the UK and the USA during the summer/fall of '99, and was released in Europe March 6, 2000 to even more raves than Night Dreams. A release on Nippon Crown followed in Japan at the end of March with a national launch in the USA August 2000.
On hiatus for most of 2002-2004, Norway has recorded the highly anticipated follow-up to Arrival, RISING UP FROM THE ASHES, with lead vocal duties handled by former Tradia & Departure frontman Dave Baldwin. This highly charged album marks the return of Norway to the top of the AOR/Melodic Rock scene worldwide.
Out now on MTM Music worldwide and Avalon Records in Japan.

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.
