LORRIDI is a Folk/Viking Power Metal one-man band by Jan Magne Garte. Taking inspiration from the sagas of the viking age and norse mythology, Garte creates vivid images of the old gods and warriors through his music and lyrics.

Born in Norway, 1971. At the age of 16, Jan Magne Garte played bass in different bands starting in the mid '80s. Growing in popularity and opening for some of the most popular Norwegian Rock bands at the time. By the early 2000s, Garte started expanding his repertoire by singing songs himself and switching from bass to guitar.

Around the same time his parental duties would start to take the focus from the music, and his career as a musician   took a hiatus for almost two decades. Now after all this time, his love for making music has truly rekindled and the old musician has returned. 

All of his music is heavly influenced by the songs of his youth, from genres such as '80s hard rock, heavy metal, thrash, but also taking notes from the next generation of musicians.

Garte also has another solo project under his own name. 
All tracks were composed, arranged, recorded and mastered by Garte himself.

Gravel Crown is a musical project born where dark grunge collides with the slow, crushing weight of melancholic metal. With low-tuned riffs, introspective vocals that erupt into harmonized emotional choruses, and lyrics that explore ruin, guilt, and transcendence, the band shapes a sound that is raw, emotional, and dust-laden — as harsh and heavy as a crown made of gravel.

Influenced by Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Motörhead, and Metallica, Gravel Crown carries the spirit of shadows, rust, splintered wood, and hardened earth. Its songs resonate like muted confessions beneath the weight of the world, searching for light between cracks and inner ashes.

More than music, Gravel Crown is an atmosphere — heavy, dirty, poetic, and human.

A four piece kick-ass rock band that does covers and originals. We are a versatile and experienced band of musicians. We can do covers, original material, plugged or unplugged.
