Bjarke Falgren - Turkis

Details
Written by: Giovanni "Gio" Pilato
Published: August 11, 2026
It's uncommon, in these days and age, to find artists willing to push the boundaries of their music to a point where, together with their inner talent, they just rely on their instinct and on the natural flow that they see only in their minds, perhaps even playing with their eyes shut, so to immerse themselves further into the music that is pouring out of their souls.
 
To us at Bluebird Reviews, it was an indescribable joy to discover an artist that describes the aforementioned concept so well and in full, like the Danish Violinist and Composer Bjarke Falgren does so beautifully on his brand new album recently released and called Turkis (Turquoise in English).

When Music becomes a fundamental part of our lives, among its many positive effects, there is that one related to freedom of expression, that liberating feeling that helps people to channel their emotions and release them to the world, a special power that only Music is able to trigger.

For the last 15 years, Music and Blues Music in particular, have been a real catalyst for the American singer-songwriter and Harmonica Maestro Chris O’Leary, an artist that has lived and still lives quite an intense life on and off the stage, with Music being a loyal and trusted companion that keeps on fuelling his many artistic talents, helping him, at the same time, to share his endless tales of relationships gone wrong, military experiences (O'Leary served as a Marine in the Gulf War) and unfortunate judgements through his impressive vocal skills and on playing harmonica.

It's rather unusual, in these days and age of Contemporary Music, to come across to an artist able to add irony, beauty, fun and swagger to already remarkable many talents as a singer, songwriter and bass guitar player quite as much as Oregon-based Blues and Funk artist Anni Piper does. 

Piper, a strikingly charming Australian-born artist that saw her career taking off even further since her move to the United States in 2014, has always impressed the fans and the critics through the years for her charming lyrical style, coupled by a vocal and overall standout performing presence on stage, the latter being aspects that match very well Anni Piper's talent and witty personality.
