VASSENDGUTANE – THE ORIGINAL OF PARTY COUNTRY!
In 1996, 6 healthy young men gathered at the Youth Center in Åmdalen in Ørsta for the first rehearsal of Vassendgutane’s journey.After a period of many rehearsals with self-proclaimed Teddy Nelson as a motivator, several new songs were added, which the guys made themselves.As time went on, the Vassendgutane kept getting questions about what style of music they played?This is how the trademark “Party-country” was created.And this became the slogan for the style of Vassendgutane.Since that time, one can safely say that things have had the right development.Others also use the Party-country style today.In 2022, Vassendgutane has become a brand, and the leading band in Norway in this segment.As mentioned, the Vassendgutane are: “The original of Party-country”.They are the band that can fill the entire concert with sing-alongs.
