KAIZERS ORCHESTRA

Vox Artist is proud to represent Kaizers Orchestra, one of Norway's major rock successes the last decade. Kaizers Orchestra perform festivals in Europe this Summer following the release of their Violeta Violeta II album.

Kaizers Orchestra is a six piece, hard-hitting, alternative rock band from Norway. The band draws inspiration from all kinds of musical genres, and their reputation as one of the most exciting and energetic live acts on the planet stands undisputed by those who have seen them unravel on stage. A hard working gang who has had the privilege of spilling blood, sweat and catchy songs on big and small crowds through more than 800 shows all over Europe the past eight years, all in Norwegian too!

The band was founded in the year 2000, right after the members had partied like it was 1999, at a time when people thought the world was going under and stacked canned food in their basement and sealed their windows in fear of computer breakdowns and killer bees from Australia. Kaizers Orchestra absorbed the anxiety and the populations massive fear of the breakdown of civilizations, blended it with the pounding of empty norwegian oil-barrels, and just came blasting out of the cellar sounding like nothing else on the planet. These guys are not guilty for having put the ”b” in subtle, to put it that way, and you may have to have seen the Kaizers live to understand what that actually means, or you might not even know then, which is fine too.

In the bands 10th year they are busier than ever. Released the start of a new trilogy Violeta Violeta I in February last year. Toured and played for record amounts of people. The second part of the trilogy Violeta Violeta Vol II was released on 11.11.11 in Norway and 13.01.12 around Europe. The band has toured extensively this Spring and will be seen on Summer festivals. Violeta Violeta III is due for release in November this year.
