Mari Boine Turns 70 and Celebrates with an Anniversary Tour
The iconic Sami-Norwegian artist and activist Mari Boine turns 70 this year and is marking the occasion with an extensive anniversary tour.
For more than four decades, Mari Boine has been one of the country’s most groundbreaking and influential artists. With a style that seamlessly moves between joik, jazz, folk music, rock, and electronic elements, she and her musicians have created a unique musical language that continues to inspire generations of listeners, both in Norway and abroad.
Boine is a distinctive voice who, throughout her career, has challenged boundaries and brought Sami culture, history, and identity to the forefront of public discourse. At the same time, she has created music that unites audiences across national borders and language barriers.
Recent years have also shown that Boine remains an artist in constant evolution. After reaching a new and broader audience through *Hver gang vi møtes*, which was followed by extensive touring and new music, Mari Boine continues to renew her artistic expression.
This fall, she invites audiences on a tour that looks back on an extraordinary career while also pointing forward. Audiences can expect powerful musical moments, songs from her entire catalog—including ALVA (her latest album)—and an artist who still possesses the same power, presence, and artistic curiosity she has become known for.
This fall’s concerts will be a rare opportunity to experience a living legend alongside her fabulous band.
