Long Route. Same Fire.
Ten songs. One long road. Same fire.
Old ideas, new tools, and the need to keep moving.
Open North
Forgotten Somewhere opened the road for Open North. It was the project’s first release and is now the opening track of Long Route, Same Fire.

Every crack in the recording, every imperfect note — it's proof the music was lived before it was made. We don't fix what was never broken.
Songs written years ago, now given the space and tools they always deserved. The feeling is the same. The execution is everything it needed to become.
Not a destination. Not an arrival. A constant heading — kept even when the route changes, even when the road disappears for a stretch.
Open North is about moving forward without erasing where you came from. Old songs, unfinished ideas, distant places — finally given space to breathe.
Not about arriving first. About staying on the road.
Long Route. Same Fire.
Notebooks. Bad chords. The beginning of something that didn't know what it was yet.
Playing with others. Learning what it means to make a sound together — and what gets lost when a band stops.
Small stages. Small crowds. The feeling of a song landing in a room.
First real recordings. Borrowed gear, borrowed time. Something started to sound like something.
Life happened. The band stopped. The songs didn't. Sketches piled up in folders nobody opened.
Uploading quietly. Not for anyone. Just to hear them back in the world.
Old songs, new tools, honest intentions. What was forgotten started coming back. Open North takes shape.
The first sound from Open North. Available now on all streaming platforms.
Ten songs finally leave the notebooks and rough recordings behind. The first Open North album is out now.
Guitars, stages, notebooks, pedals.
Years of fire that never went out.
Open North started with songs written years ago. Forgotten notebooks. Cheap guitars. Life happened. The songs stayed.
"What stayed in notebooks and rough recordings is now becoming sound, image and movement."
This is a solo project — one person revisiting what got left on the road. Open North isn’t a band. It’s a direction. The tools are new. The fire is the same one that was always there.
The north is not a place. It is a direction. And the road is always open.
10 songs · released August 16, 2026
After years of writing, recording, changing, restarting and moving forward, the first Open North album is finally here. Ten songs carrying places, moments, people and everything that somehow keeps travelling with us.
Long route. Same fire.
The songs started the road. The next miles include clothing, objects and stories built around the same idea: find your direction and keep moving.
