About Rockheim – Hall Of Fame

Inducted into the Rockheim Hall of Fame this year are Jonas Fjeld, Radka Toneff and Halvdan Sivertsen.

The Rockheim Hall of Fame, situated on the harbour front in Trondheim, is the National Museum of Popular Music in Norway, and this is the tenth year that the institution has recognised persons who have made outstanding contributions to the growth and promotion of Norwegian pop music.

The Norwegian singer and composer Radka Toneff was known for her distinctive, low-key style.
She was awarded the Spellemannpris in the best vocalist category in 1977 and posthumously received the Norwegian Jazz Association’s Buddy Award in 1982. Her style of singing has inspired and influenced numerous young Scandinavian jazz vocalists.

Halvdan Sivertsen has been one of Norway’s most beloved folk singers and entertainers since making his breakthrough in 1979. He released his first album “Halvdan 23 1/2 år” in 1973, and his breakthrough came in 1979 with the album “Nordaførr”. The first time Halvdan Sivertsen was awarded the Spellemannpris was in 1981 for the album “Liv Laga”. In the same year, he launched his own TV show. Sivertsen and his colleagues Jan Eggum, Lillebjørn Nilsen and Øystein Sunde formed a group known as “Gitarkameratene” (The Guitar Friends) in 1988.

Jonas Fjeld began his career in the early 1970s with the rock band JFRRB with its humorous sound before moving on to a more serious style. He made his solo debut LP “Take Two Aspirins And Call Me In The Morning” in 1975, but it wasn’t until 1977 when “The Tennessee Tapes” album was released that the new musical direction really took off. Fjeld developed his own style of music, based on rock and country, on this album and several subsequent records over the coming years. Jonas Fjeld has been working with Ole Paus in a long- standing collaboration as the duo “To Rustne Herrer”.
