BETA Records - Your music matters!

Vocalist and harp-player Rune Myhren started his musical carreer in 1990. Myhren has through the last four years dedicated a lot of focus towards norwegian and international blues through being the chairman of the board for the norwegian bluesmagazine "BluesNews" and as owner of the Management "ROOTS Booking". Myhren is inspired by great harp-players like Rice “Sonny Boy 2” Miller and George "Harmonica" Smith. With a mix of these genres Myhren has throughout the last 13 years tried to adapt his own style. Myhren has toured and shared stage with bluesartists like Bob Margolin, James Harman, Snooky Pryor, Mel Brown, Mark Hummel, Gary Primich, RJ Mischo, Billy Branch, Terry Hanck, and Junior Watson.

It was the friendship towards some of these artists that brought him over to San Francisco in September 2003 with his new project - "Myhrens Dam"- to record his new CD – ”Sampled Minds”. The CD was successfully released in may-2004 – featuring artists like; RJ Mischo and Garth Webber. The title - “Sampled Minds” – is chosen by the fact that Myhren has himself written, arranged and produced 6 of the songs on this CD. Myhren is used to Touring on his own and hook up with different national bands that knows their way around the blues.
