Unique Kings of Convenience concert series in VEGA

During the weekend of 14–16 April 2023, the Norwegian folk-popduo will play three concerts in Store VEGA.

The Bergen duo of Erlend Øye and Eirik GlambekBøe invite you to concerts on the evenings of Friday and Saturday evening 14 and 15 April 2023, where they will play A-sides from their entire back catalogue. On Sunday 16 April 2023, it will be afternoon 'hygge' with a selection of the group’s B-sides.

It took 12 years from when Kings of Convenience released the album Declaration of Dependence in 2009 until they were heard from again in 2021 with their latest release Peace Or Love.

However, the record didn't sound as if there had been a 12-year break, but felt like a natural continuation of their distinctive sound, which has led many to call them Norway’s answer to Simon & Garfunkel. Several media – including GAFFA in Denmark – celebrated the duo’s comeback album. In fact, GAFFA gave it five out of six stars, saying that "it’s as if they were born to make soft folk-pop together."
