About — The artist
Bokassa is a Norwegian rock band from Trondheim founded in 2013 by Jørn Kaarstad, Lars Erik Andreassen and Olav Dowkes. Originally, the band consisted of Jørn Kaarstad (guitar, vocals), Olav Dowkes (drums) and Lars Erik Andreassen (bass). In 2015, Eirik Angård replaced Lars Erik Andreassen. In 2016, Bård Linga replaced Angård. In 2024, Linga decided to leave the band on amicable terms. In 2024, bass player Inge Morten Gustafsholm toured with the band but announced the end of their collaboration on 24 September 2024. In October 2024, Ole Vistnes joined the band.
Bokassa has released four studio albums: Divide & Conquer (2017, self released), Crimson Riders (2019) on Mvka Music, Molotov Rocktail (2021) on Napalm Records and All Out of Dreams (2024) on Indie Recordings. The band toured Europe supporting Metallica on the WorldWired Tour in 2019, after Metallica's drummer Lars Ulrich gave the band a glowing endorsement.
The band released its fourth studio album 'All Out of Dreams' with Indie Recordings on 16 February 2024.
