The summer tour with eight stops around Sweden was supposed to be performed by the Norén brothers together. Now it will be concerts without Gustaf – who has been ordered to rest and recover.
Little brother Viktor Norén will not be alone on stage, however. He has his band and different guest artists every evening. Additionally, local folk music groups will open each concert.
”I have never looked forward to a tour as much. With this incredible collection of guest artists, the local folk music group, and the tribute to our Swedish music tradition, it will not be like anything I've done before. It will be unforgettable folk festivals, filled with great emotions and enormous playing joy”, writes Viktor Norén in a press release.
