Biography

Norwegian alternative rock band formed in the town of Stokmarknes in 1993 and has since then gone under several identities and member changes until around 1997 when they permanently changed their name to Madrugada. Their style can be considered as dark, melancholic and bluesy rock, and ever since the instant success of their first release "Industrial Silence", several awards has been won by the band through their career. The recording of Madrugada's last self titled album was started early summer 2007 in New York. During the recording, their guitarist and main songwriter Robert Burås was found dead in his apartment in July. Despite this tragedy, the remaining two members went through finishing the recording of the album. Shortly after the release they issued a statement that they were to split up reasoning that: "as long there is no Robert, there is no Madrugada". With a replacement guitarist, they went on a last farewell tour in 2008 ending in Oslo Spectrum. On June 15th, 2018, the band announced on their Facebook page that they had reunited with original drummer Jon Lauvland Pettersen and announced a 2019 European tour. Current members: [a=Sivert Høyem] – vocals (1993–2008, 2018–present) [a=Frode Jacobsen] – bass (1993–2008, 2018–present) [a=Jon Lauvland Pettersen] – drums (1993–2002, 2018–present) Former members: [a=Robert Burås] – guitar (1993–2007, died in 2007) [a=Erland Dahlen] – drums (2005–2008) [a=Simen Vangen] – drums (2002–2005) [a=Marius Johansen] – guitar (1993–1995)

LYRICS

Take the forward path
Have a big slice of the city
Get the upper hand
While you're still pretty
But you know what we're like
No, they will never respect you
The way you want them to respect you
I think it's very well understood

But I'm
I'm gonna hold on to you
I'm gonna hold on to you
You

Your cracked up shell
A dead opera house
You give yourself to them now
In a game of cat and mouse

From the storyboard
To the bedroom scene
Through eleven World Wars
Other people you have been

Well I'm
Gonna hold on to you
I'm gonna hold on to you
You

Oh I'm
Gonna hold on to you
I'm gonna hold on to you
You

I can come to terms
With slowly going mad
Things we used to fear in the dark
And what ever lies beyond that

But I've come to resemble
My own shadow
As it falls into the sidewalk
I'm no longer anyone I know

No-one here reminds me of you
Yet I see no-one else
On the crowded sidewalk

Well I'm
I'm gonna hold on to you
I'm gonna hold on to you
You


Oh I'm
I'm gonna hold on to you
I'm gonna hold on to you
Hold on to you
Hold on to you
I'm gonna hold on to you.
