About Kjell Braaten

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I have always been surrounded by and created music, but one of the most significant moments was when I, as a kid, heard Pink Floyd´s "A Saucerful of Secrets" from the album of the same name. It changed how I understood and hear music! What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Angelite, Huun-Huur-Tu, Moscow Art Trio, Fly, Fly My Sadness King Crimson, In the Court of the Crimson King (Expanded Edition) Neil Young, Harvest I chose these three albums because they represent different aspects of my inspiration as a musician and because they have played a big part in shaping how I make and perceive music. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Østavind” There could be so many of my songs, but I chose this as it was the first song I had to exceed one million streams on streaming services. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? One would be when we first performed the third Wardruna, and Einar´s kids joined us on stage for the song Odal. Another would be when I first saw the "Vikings Valhalla" series to hear how Mr. Trevor Morris integrated my parts.
