Biography

Following in the wake of Flown, their critically acclaimed 2020 debut album, Norwegian art rockers Dim Gray returned with its follow-up, Firmament, last September. ‘Well-written and superbly performed material that stays with you’ – Guitarist Dim Gray will play 15 shows across Europe supporting Big Big Train this August and September, having also toured with them in 2022. Dim Gray have also supported Marillion on two occasions: in Stockholm 2022 and in Leicester 2023. Dim Gray incorporate elements from folk music into a forward-thinking aesthetic, in a sound that evokes a blend of Radiohead and Fleet Foxes. A wide and ever-changing palette of sounds and ideas is rooted in the constants of aching vocals and subtly reverbed guitars. The trio who form Dim Gray come from three different places—musically and geographically. Håkon Høiberg, Oskar Holldorff and Tom Ian Klungland all moved to Oslo in 2012. The three members have contrasting musical backgrounds in genres as diverse as black metal, prog, blues, folk and film music, but in fusing these together they began to develop something distinctive and unique.
