Headed by John Olav Nielsen the Norwegian band plays authentic power pop with a romantic view of youth and a penchant for grand string arrangements and joyful rock’n’roll riffs. Everything is kept in place by John’s gentle vocals and the band’s debut album “For Sant Til Å Være Godt”, which was released in January through VME, stunned the critics in Norway. Subsequently they have enjoyed great success in their native country, and they are also to play at Roskilde later this year. .
