    Biography

    Knut Reiersrud is known to most people as a guitarist. It's now 42 years since he had the honour of playing with his legendary Buddy Guy and Junior Wells. Since then he has played at 6000 concerts, made more than 300 records, and 16 under his own name, and in between times learned to master ten different string instruments. Reiersrud's unique talent shines out through allthis versatility. In some inexplicable way, he creates an aura around the notes that is pure Reiersrud, whether he is playing African, Indian, Norwegian or American folk music His playing seems to find the essence; it evidences fundamentality, understanding and a sense of origin The blues were his entrée to an unusually varied career, difficult to define but undoubtedly that of an innovative stylist.
