Salhuskvintetten Olkabilamo

Salhuskvintetten OLKABILAMO was a band from Salhus, Åsane in Bergen, Norway formed in 1950 by Monrad Holm Johnsen.

Monrad Holm Johnsen came from Sandviken to Salhus in 1930 and became active in both sports and in the local man's choir.

The three women in the band quit, but the rest wanted to continue, and they formed Salhuskvintetten, although they didn't have a name at the beginning, and were called "Cowboygjengen" (Cowboygang) or "Salhus Cowboys".

The single "Singel Og Sand" were on "VG-lista" for 27 weeks and sold 30,000 copies.

In the later years, three of them have died, Birger Martinussen in 1997, Monrad Holm Johnsen in 1998 and Lars Kalvik in 2000.
