KINGS OF CONVENIENCE
Quiet Is The New Loud
7.30pm, 16 Mar

Indie-pop duo Eirik Glambek Bøe and Erlend Øye’s vocal harmonies and intersecting guitar work add atmospheric depth and rhythms to their intimately phrased pop songs. These goldsmiths of a bucolic brand of pop were thrust into the public eye in 2001 with a magnificent debut album Quiet is the New Loud which sold more than 200,000 copies worldwide, garnered strong reviews and a cult following to boot. Kings of Convenience is credited for spearheading the New Acoustic Movement, in the tradition of Simon and Garfunkel and Nick Drake. Fans of Belle & Sebastian and Elliott Smith would likewise be seduced by these sweater-clad dreamers.
