“Straight outta…” Denmark comes this four-piece band that has built up a great live reputation with their guitar-driven rock’n’roll through 2 albums since 2007.
Formed by Tobias Kippenberger, Simon Visti and Ace in the Spring of 2006. They are known to be one of Denmark’s most spectacular live acts. Their debut album, “All Juice No Fruit” was released in Denmark on October 15th 2007 by Tabu Rec./Playground, their second album was released in March 2010 on Target Records.
The songs Told Her I’m From Compton and Do Your Sister have enjoyed quite a lot of airplay in Denmark and brought them to a nomination for the P3 Talent Prize in 2008.
Songs like All Outta Love, Leave Me Now (Leave Me Tomorrow) and Harder Than You Think brought them several nominations for “Howl at the Moon”, including the P3 Gold Prize, GAFFA Awards and Zulu Awards in 2010/11 - the only award they won, ironically was Best “New” Act at Zulu Awards.
