Morgan Lindstrøm

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Morgan Lindstrøm. (Born 1956 in Oslo) - Norwegian artist/composer/synthesizer-performer.

Lindstrøm was a member of the synth-duo Langsomt Mot Nord during their "Westrveg"-period.

His style has been described as "... rock propelled with influences from Norwegian folk and classical music, the synth work sometimes taking on the Michael Garrison wall-of-sound feel, with the finesse of early Vangelis".

Before Langsomt Mot Nord, Lindstrøm was a member of the band "Ixi". Ixi participated on a record released by NRK radio in 1982, containing the chosen bands from "Ungdommens Radioavis Rockemønstring", a competition of upcoming bands. Ixi was later seen in the renowned "Club 7" in Oslo.

He is the brother of another Norwegian artist, Rune Lindstrøm of deLillos.

In 2007 Lindstøm started an electropop-band called SoulSheen, with Kaja Sheen (lead vocals), Madeleine Schee (vocals) and Mikjel Helmers and Lindstrøm on synthesizers. The band have websites on http://www.soulsheen.com/ and http://www.myspace.com/soulsheen.
