Gitarkameratene is the name used for a groupo of well-known Norwegian singers when they tour together. The group includes Lillebjørn Nilsen, Halvdan Sivertsen, Jan Eggum and Øystein Sunde. The name Gitarkameratene can roughly be translated "The guitar friends" or "The guitar companions".
Because of the popularity of each of the solo artists, Gitarkameratene is considered a Norwegian "supergroup".
The four singers used the name for the first time when they was turning together in 1988. They released two records in 1989 and 1990, which became big successes in Norway. Since then they have played together on various occasions. While all four work on their own material, they also work together in concerts and on recordings.
When four other Norwegian artists (Espen Lind, Kurt Nilsen, Askil Holm and Alejandro Fuentes) are playing together, they have often been referred to as De Nye Gitarkameratene ("The new guitar companions"). The four have have not used this name officially. However, the term has been used in the press, causing Lillebjørn Nilsen to send a letter of protest to Espen Lind, who replied and said that they had not used the name officially and that they actually did not feel comfortable with using the name themselves.
