Norwegian country music legend Bjøro Håland returns to Høstfest for his 36th performance. He was born in 1943 at a small farm in Norway, where he grew up with five brothers and sisters. He soon became interested in singing and music. All the oldest children amongst Bjøro had to work on the farm to help their parents, who lived off the land. At age 5, he performed on stage for the first time.

When he turned 17, he immigrated to the USA, working as a carpenter and singing in the local bars. He met his wife, Liv, in Brooklyn, and they moved back to Norway in 1966 and raised two children. His first recording was made in 1970.

Håland is a recipient of the Scandinavian Hall of Fame. 

With hits like Mamma Mia, Waterloo, Fernando, and Dancing Queen, ABBA, Sweden’s biggest music export group ever, made their way into the hearts of people worldwide.
