About Me

We are three grown up boys living in Bergen, Norway. All three of us have written songs and played music for several years, but we started playing as The Almost Famous in 2006. After a while we started recording our music. We try to come up with an optimal arrangement for each song, and make it a group effort as much as we can. But ultimately we hope the songs will stand on their own. Here are four songs available for you. Feel free to tell us what you think of our music.
