Norwegian guitarist, Kim Myhr tours Asia.
Kim Myhr (born 1981) is an active voice on the Norwegian creative music scene, with regular performances across Europe, Australia, Asia and America.
In 2008, he received the JazZtipend at the Molde International Jazz Festival.

Myhr's first solo recording will be out on SOFA at the beginning of 2012.
In addition to making music, Kim Myhr is also the director of the Fri Resonans festival, which has been presenting cutting-edge and innovative music in Trondheim, Norway since 2005. He is also co-running the record label SOFA.
