Norwegian singer Sivert H°yem is back with a new album. Most
people knew Sivert already from his work with Madrugada, but
that came to an end in 2007 and for many years we can now
enjoy him with his own band.
"Lioness", album number five for this Norwegian, is a release
that raises the bar for others. The album is bringing so much
that one does not simply be done with one or two spins to get
the experience. No, it is a very rich release that embraces a
lot more than one could anticipate on. Sivert is king in
setting atmosphere. His voice is so diverse that he can bring
you so many sides of it in one album and never cease to keep
the connection with it alive. You know blindly it is him. But
it is not only his voice that does the trick, the arrangements
made, the instruments that are there for a support, not taking
the lead but guide you through an ambiance of dark romance,
passion and dreams.
Whether it is an up-tempo track that puts the smile on your
face or a slower song like "It Belongs To Me" where acoustic
guitar is added, Sivert is captivating and brings an
experience. Do you close your eyes, you imagine your hand
taken by a prince asking you to dance, or perhaps you are the
prince looking for the fine lady to share a dance with.
"Lioness" is a rich experience, an album that is giving you so
much more than the beautiful music it holds. Hours of
listening, hours of imagination, it is ahead of you when
having this one in your collection.
