Friends paid tribute to Roy Stenersen last night.

Badger was one of the artist last night who commemorated Roy Stenersen in what was to become a memorable evening. On stage they were joined by Ove Schei on guitar, Ole-Morten Indigo Lekang and Benjamin Mørk on keyboards, Fred Glesnes on saxofone, Christian Hyld on trumpet and Torbjørn Ingvaldsen on trombone.

In memory of the late Roy Stenersen.

On the 29th of October a tribute concert will be held at Radisson Hotel Blu in Tromsø. Friends and musicians will contribute to make this a special evening. Badger which was one Roy Stenersen’s favorite bands will also perform.

Details around ticket sales are yet to be published.

Nå står musikere i kø for å hylle ham.

På minnekonserten vil en rekke band spille. Langt fra alle bandene er klare, men noen er spikret. Blant dem er bandene Banana Airlines og KM Myrland – hvor Roy spilte fast i. I tillegg skal Badger, som var Roy Stenersens favorittband i Tromsø, spille. – Han sa alltid at det var et band som virkelig har potensial, husker Kjetil Andreassen.

Publisert 5. des. 2014

I dag er det 5.desember og dags for å åpne den femte luken i Buktafestivalen sin egen adventskalender.

Bak luke 5 og på 20.plass i kåringen vår finner vi bandet Badger med platen C’mon Girls!

Bandet som befinner seg i krysset mellom E-Street og Abbey Road har eksistert i ulike konstellasjoner siden 1997. I disse dager er Badger konsertfavoritter for mange tromsøværinger, og en garantist til å skape god sommerstemning med sin tidløse powerpop. C’mon Girls er et utrolig sterkt album med mange solide enkeltlåter, som står seg like godt i spilleren over ti år etter sin opprinnelige utgivelse. Albumet er velprodusert og bærer preg av ny energi og lekenhet.
