Dear everyone,

Wishing you a Happy New Year 2021. Super excited to share with you some great news!

My New Album Transparence — by Scandinavian/Italian band HITRA – will be released on February 19, 2021 under AMP Music & Records.

Born at the Norwegian Academy of Music in Oslo, HITRA has already recorded and performed in concert in Norway. Inspired by a Norwegian county which covers hundred islands, islets and skerries, HITRA comprehends four artists who have extensively investigated contemporary forms through their personal careers: guitarist Hilmar Jensson from iceland, pianist Alessandro Sgobbio from italy, bassist Jo Berger Myhre and drummer Øyvind Skarbø from Norway.

Pre-orders are open now, feel free to check out the BANDCAMP album-page and consider ordering your copy (LP/CD/Digital).

“Alessandro Sgobbio est un musicien qu’on espère voir à l’avenir davantage exposé, car la musique qu’il compose tout comme son jeu lumineux méritent d’être partagés avec le plus grand nombre.”
