Aavery is a 21-year-old rapper raised in Norway and originally from the Philippines. Now based in Trondheim, he has quickly established himself as a new voice in Norwegian hip-hop – known for combining strong storytelling and lyrical precision with warm, soul-inspired productions.

The EP Childhood Dreams (2024), inspired by Dreamville, Saba and Freddie Gibbs, among others, received praise from NRK P3 for its melodic strength and genre playfulness. He has since been on stage at Trondheim Calling 2025, opening for both Ivan Ave – a recognized voice in international hip-hop – and KØBER, a leading figure in Norwegian old-school rap.

In a short time, he has earned a reputation as an outstanding live artist. He is constantly praised for his impressive stage presence, musicality and energy. In the summer of 2025, he played at the famous Øya Festival, one of Norway's largest festivals, in the same program as Charli XCX and Lola Young.

In the fall of 2025, he released the collaborative album Familiar Times, an album inspired by D'Angelo, A Tribe Called Quest, Terrace Martin, and Robert Glasper. Three of the singles – "Company", "Time", and "Never Change" – received praise and were listed on NRK P3.

Now he is working on his next album, which delves even deeper into the person behind “Aavery,” with the warm and comfortable sound he is known for. In September 2026, he will be opening for Dreamville rapper, Lute, when he stops in Oslo during his European tour.

The concert is included in the admission ticket to Rockheim.
