Hi There!

My name is Hans-Marius Johnsen. I’m a 28-year-old artist, father, songwriter and a people-lover. I have and still am dedicating my life to art and music. I have an enormous passion and thrive to express myself through my own work and songs, and with a life goal to reach out and touch as many people as possible with my music and work.

At 28, I have a ten-year-old professional music career behind me in the focus of the blues in Norway and northern Europe, and I have long been working towards growing my own sound and artistic way outside of the “blues-box” that I felt so trapped in.

I have today worked out a release-plan of the bit un-traditional way of making an album release, which I mean is very personal and unique. I have now started to book shows along the continent of Europe, with the goal to reach Northern Afrika at the end. Everything will be documented through social medias, ending with uniqe Youtube miniepisodes after the release of the album and return from the tour.

My target and goal with this project are to reach out to as many people as possible, and hopefully set my music and my name a bit more on the map for people around the world. I believe that hard work, honesty in my music and a bit of luck can be a good way to achieve artistic success, and maybe even some commercial success as well.

To be able to travel this journey and connect with amazing people with my music, I need help from YOU!

THE BRIEF OF THE PROJECT

Me and my team are done with the planning phase of next year’s unique “release-project”. This is absolutely special and original, and I am forever grateful for the chance of doing this project in 2025.

It’s been an incredible hard, but a great year artistically speaking. I have been lucky to have met my artist mentor and producer Stephaene Detrez in 2023, and we started to work on the real soul of my potential as an artist, performer and songwriter this year. Its been a Journey ever since it started.

From April 2025 there will be a new song released every month all the way up till October. The first week in May, I start traveling together with an amazing and skilled content creator Kataryna Prokopenko down the continent of Europe in an old classic Mercedes-Benz. I am playing in 9 different countries, with over 20 different shows in four weeks until I finally end up in Casablanca, Morocco.

The trip both ways will be over 8 500,00 kilometers through the best that Europe has to offer.

I will spread my message and music out to as many people as possible, and at the same time leave behind me an ocean of fantastic clips, photos and recordings along the way. After we return to Norway in first week of June, the whole album will be released out to the world in its entirety.

Are we done yet?

From October 2025 we will be launching full length episodes on YouTube as a musical documentary of the trip. One episode will be released per country, which will give the audience a whopping nine 20 minutes long episodes dedicated to their country.

The audience will be able to take part in the journey and the music, in a unique and special way with a fantastic visual and personal vibe over it. All the beautiful surroundings, scenery and music will become an astonishing piece of art available for everyone and forever online.
