With hard-hitting blues rock and reckless rawness, Peer Taraldsen aka Peer Gynt has captivated audiences in many parts of the world with his sparkling guitar playing and stage charm. With his regular band, he has toured for many years at home and abroad. In 2022, “Peer Gynt – Live In Hell” was nominated for the Bluesblast Music Awards in the US for Best Live Recording.
In an impressive career that has spanned for almost 30 years, Peer Gynt has appeared on more than 20 albums for many well-known labels and toured internationally, sharing the stage with great musicians such as Walter Trout, Steve Morse, Ana Popovic, Ten Years After and Manfred Mann. Hollywood has also opened its ears to the down-to-earth native of Trøndelag, and has used Peer Gynt’s music productions in well-known films and TV series such as RED, MTV Jackass, MTV Punked, CSI and 60 Minutes.
Peer Gynt tours with a band consisting of BP Hovik (drums) and Jon Krogstad (bass) in addition to himself on guitar and vocals. A new album is expected this fall.
