How does Samspill help our members?

Discounts

Samspill collaborates with many businesses and organisations to offer discounts to our members. Everything from rental cars, rehearsal rooms, studios, rental of backline and more!

Courses and guidance

We frequently arrange courses covering relevant topics for you as a self-employed musician. 
Do you need info or help with different grant schemes? Samspill gives advice and individual guidance.

Production of childrens concerts

Do you want to play for a young audience? Samspill contributes to the production of making concerts for children and youths. Members are invited to work with skilled producers and resource persons with their concert production, from idea to finished product.

Artist Catalogue

We have our own catalogue presenting our members and their music. This is a good way to showcase yourself as an artist! The Artist Catalogue is used to promote musicians and genres to professionals, festivals and organisers.

Networking

Samspill is a network of musicians in itself. In addition, we are part of many larger networks and we collaborate with big organisations in the cultural sector. As a member of Samspill, you become part of this network - and that is valuable!

Political Representation

Samspill is a social advocate and voice representing our members, in society and with our partners.

Global Folk Sessions

Global Folk Sessions was a lovely way to meet musicians I didn't know. It was fun to share my music and my way of playing traditional instruments with others. You learned so much from the other participants, and immensely enjoyed the mentors' way of leading the group. I can say with my hand on my heart, that I have made new friends and colleagues, and I am already well into working with several of them. Thank you very much for the great work you do! I was so happy to be invited to participate, but GFS was even better than I expected!

I have wanted to play for young people for a long time, but I didn't know how to go about it. Through Baluba, I have had the opportunity to play in schools, meet young people, talk to the children, exchange ideas with them, and see how they react when we perform. It was educational for me and intense, and I am very grateful.

Sunday World

I only have good experience as a producer for Samspill's Sunday World in the autumn of 2021. I received good support and follow-up throughout, they work seriously and professionally in every way. I would like to work with them more in the future!

Baluba

Baluba fills a unique and long-awaited role in Norway's music industry. There is a broad consensus that we need more diversity on the stage for children and young people.

The culture industry in Norway has its specific codes which are not easy to crack. Many newly arrived and unestablished musicians therefore need tailored guidance and a network within the music community.

It was a great pleasure! Many thanks to Samspill and Riksscenen for the opportunity Gregor and I had to create a new school production. We worked with two very inspiring, dynamic and experienced producers, Vegar Vårdal and Siri Kvambe. We can't wait to see the children's reactions!
