The duo, consisting of Bjørn Tveit (vocals/guitar) and Hans Thomas Kiær (guitar), spent the summer of 2009 as workers on the farm belonging to Hans Thomas' family in Drammen. To pass the time, they listened to music they liked, and after a quick discussion they made up their mind: “Let's go to the town and buy some sound equipment. Let's make the music ourselves!” Without any experience or know- how, they spent their savings on guitars, a microphone and a sound card. And after six months their first song was finished. Their music was then nurtured in a barn – the home of Alfred the bull. The significance of Alfred is probably as overstated as it’s understated.
Even after their second gig ever, the rave reviews started coming in, and the band quickly became the band to watch out for in 2012. Their debut single, «So Bright» (2012), was a hit on international tastemaker radio stations and on Norwegian radio making way for the album Wilderness, which was released exclusively in Norway in 2013.
Their music video «Lose That Gun» embraced the masses like a warm breeze during the summer of 2013. It featured at several short-film festivals and the video was nominated as “Scandinavia ́s best music video” at the Bergen International Film Festival 2013.
During the spring of 2014, the band landed a sync placement with Netflix, using their song “Safe and Sound” on the official trailer for Netflix originals series Derek. Soon after, the Mexican beer brand Cerveza Pacifico Clara used their song “Someplace Beautiful” in their release campaign towards the U.S market. The campaign video became a huge hit, and currently has had over 300 000 views on Youtube.
