Honest Over Perfect

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.

Old Fire, New Road

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.

The North Is a Direction

Not a destination. Not an arrival. A constant heading — kept even when the route changes, even when the road disappears for a stretch.

The Concept

The road is open.
The fire is still here.

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.

The Road

The road took shape
over the years.

1997

First Songs

Notebooks. Bad chords. The beginning of something that didn't know what it was yet.

2006

First Band

Playing with others. Learning what it means to make a sound together — and what gets lost when a band stops.

2009

First Shows

Small stages. Small crowds. The feeling of a song landing in a room.

2010

Studio — a Friend's Place

First real recordings. Borrowed gear, borrowed time. Something started to sound like something.

2012

GarageBand & Notebooks

Life happened. The band stopped. The songs didn't. Sketches piled up in folders nobody opened.

2019

First Recordings Online

Uploading quietly. Not for anyone. Just to hear them back in the world.

2025 – 26

Revisiting the Routes

Old songs, new tools, honest intentions. What was forgotten started coming back. Open North takes shape.

May 24

Debut Album — Long Route, Same Fire

Ten songs finally leave the notebooks and rough recordings behind. The first Open North album is out now.

The Road in Images

Every mile
left a mark.

Guitars, stages, notebooks, pedals.
Years of fire that never went out.

Behind the Compass

Not a band.
It’s a direction.

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.

Beyond the Music

Open North is more than a record.

The songs started the road. The next miles include clothing, objects and stories built around the same idea: find your direction and keep moving.
