In his 50 years as performing artist, Bjøro has sold more than 4 million records. On this album his audience will yet again be appreciating his warm and gentle baritone voice, and his performances of a carefully selected batch of tunes, which will make people nod and recognize favorites, as well as making them appreciate fresh new quality interpretations. Billing himself as "the Norwegian Cowboy", Bjøro, who hails from Kristiansand, Norway, has become an international country singing sensation. Not your typical Norwegian listening fare back in Bjøro's earlier years. Bjøro was around 9 years of age when he heard his first country music song - via a record his brother was playing. After that, he was hooked! His first stage appearance was as a teenager. The song? "I Can't Stop Loving You" by Don Gibson. When his fellow Norwegians heard him sing, they, too, were hooked!
