Katthult formed sept 99 as a follow up to the quite popular band 'egoland'. We have won NRK P3's (national norwegian radio) annual music competition, and 'Weaker' has got much airplay on norwegian radiostations. The bands debut album has received great reviews and got nominated for the Norwegian Grammys.
Thinking of what to write, "Everytime We Say Goodbye" comes to mind, this group really embodies the line "There's no love song finer but how strange the change from major to minor" - well, they had their 2 albums out on the multinational Nordic indie label Bonnier Music, an aspiring major.

More...Thinking of what to write, "Everytime We Say Goodbye" comes to mind, this group really embodies the line "There's no love song finer but how strange the change from major to minor" - well, they had their 2 albums out on the multinational Nordic indie label Bonnier Music, an aspiring major. The self titled debut was great, and a semi best seller. The 2nd, Labrador, was just as good, but was to become a major flop, even in a home market with the most significant alternative main stream in the world, and Katthult is an independent main stream act with both indie and broad appeal. Lots of good songs, remarkable singer and players, and probably The band name that inspired acts like Röyksopp and Briskeby to go Norwegian in the name even though the music is as international as any. And now, they're here as a "garage band". Says a bit about the Norwegian record buyers, really. They love debutants to the extent that they make one offs of all the good ones. Loves em and leaves em.
