Alexander Rybak, 2009 Eurovision Song Contest winner from Norway and  double ESC Radio Award winner (Best Song award and Best Male Artist award 2009) has his new album out today, called  No Boundaries. A foretaste of the album had already been provided during this year’s national final season, when Alexander performed the track Europe Skies on various tv shows across Europe. As the first official single from the album the track Oah has been released, accompanied by a music video (see below).

Unsurprisingly, most of the songs on No Boundaries are written by Alexander himself. However, while the advance track Europe Skies followed along the lines of his ESC winning song Fairytale, the album offers a larger variety of musical styles. The folksy violin is still dominant in other songs like Dare I Say, Barn Dance and the single release Oah. But quite a number of songs are distinctly different in style and sound. For example Suomi, the hymnic tribute to neighbouring Finland, also the musical-inspired opening track First Kiss, and most notably Alexander’s cover version of I’m In Love, originally a minor hit for John The Whistler (Umberto Carli) in 2000, and in 2004 also a Swedish Top 10 hit for Malta’s Fabrizio Faniello (ESC 2001/2006). And who would have seen Alexander as a pop punker? Check out Why Not Me, and you’ll be in for another surprise!

During the summer months, Alexander Rybak will be performing and promoting No Boundaries mostly in Norway, Sweden and Finland. For more information please visit Alexander’s official website: www.alexanderrybak.com
