Kings Of Convenience hail from Bergen, Norway. This understated duo is able to weave unbelievable songs from relatively simple means. Essentially, two guitars and two singers are the only tools they use to create some of the most beautiful pop music in recent history.
Reminiscent of Simon and Garfunkel and Red House Painters, the duo has garnered critical praise in Europe. After their strong debut at the European festivals this summer, an international bidding war ensued as labels from all over the world sought to sign the Kings.
Earning the respect and praise of bands like the Divine Comedy, Mogwai, and the Ladybug Transistor after playing only a handful of high-profile shows speaks well of the future of this incredible songwriting team.
Kings Of Convenience is Eirik Glambek Boe on nylon string acoustic guitars and lead vocals and Erlend Oye on steel string acoustic guitars and lead vocals on "Failure."
