ABOUT
Steelbourne was initially a lockdown studio-project, designed to finish unreleased material by the Trio’s previous band.
As the writing escalated, the foundation for “A tale as old as time” was built - and a single spark reignited inferno.
Steelbourne honors the legends of old, being deeply inspired by giants such as Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Candlemass and Accept while incorporating contemporary elements into their music, aiming to provide a modern take on classic heavy metal.
Having played large venues both domestically and internationally, the trio is no stranger to touring life either, looking forward to getting back on the road later in 21.

Benjamin Andreassen
Bass & Backing Vocals
Benjamin is born and raised in Bergen, and has moved back and forth between Norway and Denmark a few times.
As a kid, being the downstairs neighbour of Varg "Greven" Vikernes at the time of his arrest, created a fascination for music that would come to life later.
Benjamin is a big fan of Black Metal acts such as Immortal and Taake, but prefers Classic Heavy Metal when it comes to performing - primarily due to the space he is allowed to take up in a mix.

Jacob Bruun
Rhytm & Lead Guitars
Jacob grew up in the western part of Denmark. As the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal swept in across the northern sea, the virtuous guitars of legends like Dave Murray, Adrian Smith and K.K. Rowling quickly caught his attention and love. The love for NWOBHM has followed Jacob throughout his life and remains his main source of inspiration.
Jacob has always been fascinated with fast melodic guitar solos and has found his throne, as lead guitarist, in the great hall of Steelbourne.

and a voice that'll cut through steel.
Writing lyrics and melodies for well over a decade, with many more stories to tell still!
