When Losing A Dream To Reality is Hannes Bennich’s debut album with music inspired by both his and others dreams. The music represents the anxiety, the beauty, the hope and the disappointment a dream can give you. As soon as a dream is fulfilled you can no longer shape it.

Hialøsa is a trio playing traditional music from the Scandinavian region of Scania. The trio is currently active with the concert “Scanian very old pop”.
