Trond Teigen - Distant Shores

Introducing a beautiful voice to the World

About Me


Welcome to the OFFICIAL MySpace for the
TROND TEIGEN album DISTANT SHORES
created & maintained by EVERYDAY RECORDS


About EVERYDAY RECORDS

EVERYDAY RECORDS is an independent company run by the composers & musicians Helen Walker and Michael Richard Walker

We love to hear from you and really appreciate your feedback & support


About DISTANT SHORES

A collaboration between Norwegian singing star Trond Teigen and English songwriter & musician Helen Walker, DISTANT SHORES is a truly International venture

The instrumental parts of the album were recorded by Helen Walker at Wilderswood Studio in the UK, whilst vocal recordings took place at Ambience Studios, Oslo. All exchanges of recordings, scores, lyrics, artwork and technical information took place via internet broadband connections

Helen said "We found this a great way to work and not at all the remote experience you might imagine. Because this is an independent production we had the freedom to work this way and to create an album that will hopefully appeal to many - crossing genres from Classical to Pop via Electronica and World music"


About TROND TEIGEN

The songs are brought to life by the amazing vocal talents of singer & actor Trond Teigen. Trond is well known in Norway for countless starring roles in musical theatre and for his numerous television, radio & concert appearances. He's voiced feature films for Disney, Fox, Amblin, Goldcrest, Pixar, Jim Henson and Dreamworks and played a regular part in the popular Norwegian sitcom series Holms
