The equipment is rigged up in the fireplace room on the second floor of the mess hall in Ny-Ålesund. A few hundred meters away sits the airship mast, and the black-and-white photos on the walls inside the concert venue show the airship Norge hovering. In a corner of the venue, the legendary polar explorer Roald Amundsen looks over the setting on this Saturday as Sondre Lerche sits on a couch and sings as he plays guitar.
