Roger Arntzen live in Oslo

Experience Roger Arntzen live on October 21st

Roger Arntzen will perform at Kulturkirken Jakob in Oslo, Norway on October 21, 2026. Arntzen is a Norwegian musician known for his atmospheric and often melancholic instrumental music, frequently described as “finndøgnpop” – a term referencing its connection to Norwegian dark pop and influences from Finnish melancholy. His compositions blend elements of electronic music, post-rock, and ambient soundscapes, often featuring layered textures and evocative melodies. He typically performs solo, utilizing a variety of instruments including guitar, keyboards, and electronic effects.

Kulturkirken Jakob is a former church building repurposed as a cultural venue. Originally constructed in 1881 as the French Church (Franske Kirke), it served the French Protestant community in Oslo for many years. Following changes in the congregation’s needs, the building was secularized and reopened as Kulturkirken Jakob in 1998. The venue now hosts a diverse range of events including concerts spanning multiple genres, theatrical performances, exhibitions, and conferences. Its unique architectural features – retaining much of its original church interior – contribute to its distinct atmosphere and acoustics making it a popular location for intimate performances.
