Didrik is 21 years old and was born in Porsgrunn, Telemark County. At 15 years he formed a band with some mates and won the place as a drummer. Didrik had discovered his voice and started performing in front of classmates and family, and joined the local high school musical.
Didrik is currently a full-time student at the highly acclaimed Barratt Due Institute of performing arts in Oslo. Although the Norwegian media refers to him as the opera singer, Didrik himself is very aware of the fact that it will only be after many years of intense practice that he can use such a label himself.
