FRESH NEW TRACKS

Oslo: Glenn Meling – “America”

Brendon Goldwasser

glenn-meling-02Glenn Meling, 44,is an independent artist, songwriter and producer from Oslo. He has lived in Australia, United Kingdom and Norway, making music from an early age. Take a listen to his fresh single “America” below! If you’re a fan of Sting, U2, or Daniel Lanois, then I think you’ll really dig the track.

Glenn became interested in the journeys of his countrymen after travelling extensively in the States where the influence of the Norwegian settlers continues to this day. In the 1800s the American midwest became a popular destination for the settlers and today you’ll find collages like St. Olaf in Minnesota which is an institution that studies Norwegian heritage and immigration. Also, the famous Joel and Ethan Cohen-film Fargo, has been inspirational and something that sparked an interest in the subject.
