Olav Larsen once again proves why he’s considered one of Norway’s most authentic voices in country and Americana music. Known for his raw, heartfelt songwriting, Larsen delivers a timeless track anchored in tradition yet filled with personal vulnerability.
Rooted in the dusty textures of Americana, Dreamer blends acoustic simplicity with emotional depth. Larsen’s gravelly and soulful vocals lead the way through verses that speak of longing, quiet hope, and the ache of not quite belonging. The song is patient in its delivery, giving space for every word and instrument to settle. There’s a purity to it; no frills, no tricks, just honest storytelling wrapped in warm melodies. Hank Williams, Neil Young, or John Prine fans will feel at home here. But Dreamer also stands independently thanks to Larsen’s ability to inject fresh feeling into classic forms. Whether backed by his longtime band, The Alabama Rodeo Stars, or standing alone in stripped-down arrangements, Larsen writes with an intimacy that invites you in and holds you close. Dreamer is a song for anyone who’s ever felt caught between reality and something greater—an anthem for those who keep going, heart first.
Stream Dreamer now and let it remind you that there’s beauty in being lost in thought.
