Scandinavia has an impressive track record of bands treading a clever line between dance and pop. Danish four-piece When Saints Go Machine — Nikolaj Manuel Vonsild (vocals), Jonas Kenton (keyboards), Simon Muschinsky (keyboards) and Silas Moldenhawer (drums) — are the latest. Their new mini album is an avant-garde pop gem that sounds like Fever Ray meets ‘Missing’ by Everything But The Girl. The four members were childhood friends who met through their parents, who all lived in the same neighbourhood in Copenhagen. They formed the band in 2007. Nikolaj explains: “Our initial goal was to make something that would work in a club environment, but we kind of got tired of the whole four-on-the-floor thing. We wanted to make music that would transcend the borders of Denmark. I guess what we do now is pop with a lot of electronics.” SALES POINTS - This is a mini teaser album, 7 tracks, the full album will have different and new tracks. · Opened this year’s Roskilde festival, playing to 45,000 people · Won the Danish National Radio Talent Of The Year Award in 2009 · Extensive tour planned for 2011 · Strong viral assets for the online campaign available · Amazing video for the single “Fail Forever” in production · Full radio, online and press campaign in Northern America, UK, Germany and France CD TRACKLISTING: 1.
