The Tempo Toppers

About Me

The Oslo band The Tempo Toppers are veterans on the Norwegian Rock'n'Roll and Rockabilly scene. All band members have a past within different Norwegian seventies and eighties groups before starting The Tempo Toppers in 1987. The Tempo Toppers gives you a varied selection of rare obscurities from bygone days, mixed with their own selv-penned songs respectely held within the tradition - but tastefully blended in their own distinct style. The music spans from Garage and Instrumentals to straight-forward Rock'n'Roll and Rockabilly - and even occationally touch on Beatles-like Beat-pop.
