Petter Wavold is one of Norway’s most popular entertainers. He’s had several big hits, and his Cd-releases have always sold well. Petter Wavold started his career in the late 70’s, when he and his band became household names in Norway’s most popular youth Tv-programme ”Halv Sju”. His solo-career reached new heights in the early 90’s, when he released the song “Æ længte hjem”. That song became more or less the “national anthem” of his home-town Trondheim, and it’s still as popular as ever. The highlights of his career includes playing in front of 40.000 people in the town square of Trondheim in 1997, his sold-out 25-years jubilee-concert with many famous guest artists and his appearances in some of Norway’s most popular Tv-programmes. Petter has several No.1’s on various music-charts, and his songs are among the most played on Norwegian radio-stations. He has been honoured with the title ”Trønderrocker of the year”, and his album ”Smil” (”Smile”) released in 2006, is concidered his best so far. He is also a preferred artist by the Rosenborg football-team, which means he’s very often seen performing in front of the crowds before matches, and also on the team’s corporate events. He composed and performed Rosenborg’s official cup-final song “Vi e’ stolt” in 2003, their crowd pleaser “Rosenborg e’ laget mitt” in 1991 as well as Rosenborg’s 90-years jubilee song ”Om vi tape så vinn vi læll” in 2007. Petter also made ”Gull og Folkefest”, the official song for Trondheim’s application for the Winter Olympics 2018. He has played more than 2000 concerts and sold more than 200.000 albums, which should be more than a good enough proof of Petter’s ability to perform and entertain. Together with his fantastic backing-band, he still thrills audiences all over Norway.
