New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Norway's
Thomas Dybdahl has unveiled the music video "When I Go," his slow-burning duet with Lera Lynn from his 'All These Things' (V2) album that was released to raves. Watch the video here, which was filmed with a full band at Village Studios in L.A. Lynn is featured on the album version of this song as well.
Thomas is about to embark on his first U.S. tour in 3 years. It will begin with a run of special guest dates with Lera Lynn on January 19, including a co-bill at The Troubadour in Los Angeles on January 25.
Thomas will then headline a run of solo shows from
Chicago to the East Coast, ending in NYC on February 7 at Joe's Pub as part of a series of concerts curated by Judy Collins. A second set was just added and tickets are on-sale for all dates now.
'All These Things' was produced by Larry Klein, who has been nominated for a Producer Of The Year GRAMMY, in part for his work on Thomas' album (specifically the songs "All These Things," "Can I Have It All," and "Look At What We've Done").
Thomas and Larry have previously collaborated on both of Dybdahl's U.S. releases: 2011's 'Songs' compilation (released on Klein's Strange
Cargo label) and 2013's 'What's Left Is Forever.'
The band featured in the "When I Go" video, and on the album, is a dream team of musicians:
James Gadson (drums - The Temptations, Bill Withers, Beck), Dean Parks (guitars - Steely Dan, Michael Jackson), Patrick Warren (keys - Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen), Dan Lutz (bass), Brian MacLeod (drums - Madonna, Sheryl Crow) and
David Baerwald (guitar - Sheryl Crow, Joni Mitchell).
