Artist Biography
Available in: gb icon
Glorys real name is Glory Ove Nordh. He was born 1958 up in the highlands, in the middle of Sweden and he moved with his family to Stockholm when he was 6 years old.

In the early 70's Glory was a member of "Earth Gravity" where he played guitar and did the vocals. The band played covers from the 60's and own songs, influenced by hard rock music.

Then Glory went to the hard rock band "Madness Age" as a singer. One of the members in "Madness Age" was Pekka Adolfsson on lead guitar who was a good friend to him back in the 60's. When a couple of band members left the band and they where replaced by new members, the band changed their name to "X-Ray Free". Pekka went on to "Intermezzo", a pop band, with Orup as a singer.

After "X-Ray Free" Glory went to the hard rock band "Nasty" as a singer.

Glory Half of the songs were written by all the members in the bands mentioned above, and the other half by Glory alone. All arrangements were made together and so it continued when Glory joined "Glory Bells Band" in 1980.

He had the Glory Bells record contract and he was legally bound to it for several years ahead. The contract said that he must do one more album. Glory started his own hard rock band "Glory North" in the beginning of 1985 and "Glory North" went into the studio later the same year and recorded the album. For more information about the hard rock band "Glory North", see Links.

"Glory North" has nothing to do with the Swedish hard rock band "Glory", who acted during the same period. This name has caused a lot of confusion and many people have asked and wondered if Glory was a member of the band "Glory", but that is all wrong. The band "Glory North" and the band "Glory" were two different bands! At first he did not like that the band had his name, but after a while he felt flattered.

Glory died in February 2008 after a long time of sickness.
