ABOUT
1/3 of Eurovision-darlings KEiiNO, Tom Hugo is a natural born entertainer. The singer, musician and artist is also a highly versitile platinum-awarded songwriter and music producer. A true citizen of the world, Tom has a long history of travelling between gigs and studio-sessions in Oslo, Tokyo, Los Angels and Berlin.
​
The smiling Norwegian has come to terms with his role on earth: Make music to put people in a happy mood. Some times that means writing and producing for German award-nominated artists like Y'akoto, other times it means penning #1 hits for Asian boybands like EXO, SHINEE or TVXQ. But since 2019, the pop-trio KEiiNO has been the priority. 160 million streams, big tours and multiple awards after he formed the band, we can say that it teaming up with Fred Buljo and Alexandra Rotan was a good idea.
But every now and then, Tom writes a song perfect for him to sing himself. That happened with 2017 Top12 Norwegian Radio single "Better Than Me" and his 2018-single "I like, I like, I like". His debut album Sundry Tales (2012) finally got a sibling with his solo-album Eden in 2023. if he's not writing songs, Tom will probably be on his way to produce or sing some of his favourite pop & discosongs on a stage somewhere.

UT AV SKALLET
Konsertforestilling inspirert av skeive historier
Artisten Tom Hugo er nok mest kjent gjennom publikumsfavorittene KEiiNO, men ved siden av trioen har han et soloprosjekt. For å bidra til et mer mangfoldig popunivers har han sammen med ektemannen (og KEiiNO-tekstforfatter) Alexander Olsson skrevet et knippe poplåter inspirert av skeive historier.
Konsertforestillingen UT AV SKALLET ble fremført første gang i Kilden konserthus under under Skeive Sørlandsdager 2021. Nå har låtskriverparet lagt til nye låter i settet, og som del av markeringen Skeivt Kulturår skal Sørlendingen nå spille et knippe forestillinger over hele landet. Men Tom Hugo er langt i fra alene på scenen, han tar med seg bandet Regnbuefamilien bestående av Markus Maaren Bastøe (gitar), Bjarne Severinsen (bass), Auver Gaaren (keyboard) og Tommy Jacksonville (trommer). Det ryktes at det også vil bli spilt en MGP-låt og at det blir en gjesteartist på scenen..
Arbeidet med låtene er støttet av Cultiva, NOPA, Tekstforfatterfondet og TONO og konsertene under Pride er støttet av Kulturdepartementet gjennom Kulturrådet.
