Gaute Orm\u00e5sen took part in Norway's first Idol programme in 2003. He took an honourable 2nd place just behind Kurt Nilsen. Shortly afterwards, he released the album \u00abNew Kid in Town\u00bb, which sold 30,000 copies and contained the hit singles \u00abChasing Rainbows\u00bb and \u00abMiss you when you`re gone\u00bb.<\/p>\n
In 2005, he signed a deal with the record company Tylden & Co and decided to switch to singing in Norwegian.<\/p>\n
For his first Norwegian-language album \u00abG for Gaute\u00bb (2006), he created what has since become a modern Norwegian classic, \u201dKj\u00e6rlighet er mer enn forelskelse\u201d. In 2008, he released the album \u00abDr\u00f8mmesang\u00bb, from which we got songs like \u00abDu + jeg= vi\u00bb and \u00abTil vi ses igjen\u00bb. The Grand Prix song \u201dSynk eller Sv\u00f8m\u201d is from the album \u00abOss i mellom\u00bb (2010). The single \u00abHei, sommer\u00bb (2012) has become a favourite summer hit. In 2013, he took part in the Eurovision Song Contest again. This time with the English song \u00abAwake\u00bb. It stayed in P4's top 30 list for many months.<\/p>\n
In 2015 he released Fedrelandet with the rap duo Robin & Bugge. The song went gold.<\/p>\n
At the end of 2016, he released a remix of Kj\u00e6rlighet er mer enn forelskelse (Love is more than infatuation), the remix was on the vg list for several weeks, and has been streamed almost 8 million times on spotify.<\/p>\n

He has also written and produced children's songs for the organisation Forut. The songs are well known in over 1000 kindergartens in Norway.<\/p>\n
