John Berge is a norwegian songwriter and singer. He started writing songs when he was 16 years old, and considers himself a vocalist who had to learn to play and record his song ideas because he had so many of them. He has written around 250 songs, of which 30 have been collaborations with other songwriters, and released one double CD in 2007 – «Clear And Present Past».
He has two unreleased new studioalbums («Keep Moving Forward» and «Illusions of Grandeur, Delusions of Love»), which will be released in the upcoming years. The first of these, «Keep Moving Forward», will be released in Q2-2024.
As of 2024 John is busy working on three (!) new studioalbums, one new side project with artist friend Shahz called AB87 (with an album planned for Autumn 2024), and a yet undisclosed ten track tributealbum to be released in 2025.
John Berge has released a string of digital singles over the years, of which three also was made as limited CD-single promos («Start To Wish», «Devil May Care» and «More or Less»). There were made around 100 copies of a «Keep Moving Forward»-CD-promo sampler, whereas the CD-single promos were made in an even more limited run.
Fun fact: The singles in themselves among with bonus track «If You Care», actually makes together a studioalbum (ten tracks), but in fact the songs are from both albums, «Keep Moving Forwards» and «Illusions of Grandeur, Delusions of Love».
