Sivert Høyem

The Profile

Sivert Høyem (born 1976) is a Norwegian singer-songwriter, best known as the lead vocalist of the rock band Madrugada and for his solo recordings.

Lead singer of Madrugada; solo material noted by reviewers to draw on influences such as Bob Dylan, Velvet Underground/Lou Reed and Northern European folk. The provided DeBaser review (2004) discusses the 2004 solo release "Ladies And Gentlemen Of The Opposition."

A mixed DeBaser review finds Sivert Høyem talented but derivative, with a voice compared to Jim Morrison. The reviewer notes clear influences (Dylan, Velvet Underground, Lou Reed) and describes some tracks as boring while other pieces could fit Madrugada.
