Rita Engedalen is an amazing blues artist and she is often referred to as “Norway’s Queen of the Blues”. She has released four CDs so far; “Hear My Song”, “Heaven Ain’t Ready For Me Yet”, “The Tree Still Standing” and “Chapels And Bars”. All are superb albums which demonstrate Rita’s unique talent. She’s not what you would call a mainstream blues performer – she’s a truly original artist.

Rita’s influences are mostly American folk music from districts and areas not very familiar to the mainstream audiences. Dusty roads, back and forth from the Appalachian Mountains to the Mississippi Delta are areas she travels musically. Her intense personality, and her strong and rich voice mixed with deeply rooted soul form her personal musical expression. Rita’s backing band is "Backbone" and it consists of guitarist Morten Omlid, bassist Jens Haugen and drummer Eskil Aasland.
