The album Awareness is drenched in Dylan – both the music and lyrics. One can feel that for Roy, Bob Dylan is an optimal reference point. At the same time, the artist makes his own impact on these melodious and neatly arranged songs.
This is Roy Einar Dreng’s second vinyl album. The Norwegian songwriter
has for years been fascinated with Dylan. Not only has Ray started ‘My
Dylan, your Dylan’ project, but has also many times participated in
Dylan Festival Beitostølen or other events dedicated to this American
bard. Listening to Awareness, one can definitely tell that Roy k ..read more

Et par låter på en pub åpnet et nytt marked: – Dette er et protestalbum
Roy Einar Dreng har ikke bare nærområdet som arena. I Polen får han mye oppmerksomhet.
Dreng, som tidligere alltid ble koblet til Bob Dylans musikk, har for lenge siden begynt å markere seg med eget stoff. Og det kommer ut både på vinyl, cd og digitalt. Men det er konsertene som gjelder. Konserter i Norge, noen turneer i Italia, der han har fått et publikum, og ikke minst i Polen.
At Polen er et av hans store markeder, konsertmessig, er nok en tilfeldighet. Og tilfeldigheter kan skape sterke bånd.
Fra pub til populær

„Dreng befinner seg i et musikalsk landskap hvor tekstene ofte forteller om mye hjerte og smerte, men da ofte på det personlige plan. Denne artisten oppfordrer oss til å tenke litt større. Som tittelen – «Awareness» (bevissthet) antyder så vil han gjerne at vi skal våkne opp. Det er hjerte og smerte her også, men på et helt annet, – og større plan”

The inspired Dylan is my favorite Dylan.
You have just recorded your next album, „Awareness”. Please tell me about your musical path from the first contact with the scene until now.
I played, of course, guitar and sung mostly Dylan songs since I was 14-15 years old, but as an organized artist, my musical path, I must say, started out through a Norwegian tribute band ( Bobband) of Bob Dylan. That I formed with my friend Eldar Kyrkjeboe.
We played all kinds of places all over the south of Norway. From festivals to small clubs. Acoustic or e ..read more
