Check out Katzenjammer’s music video for “Tea with Cinnamon” from their new EP!
Katzenjammer are a Norwegian All Female band who’s style mixes Folk, Americana, Pop, Rock & Balkan music. They are 4 girls who all play more than 16 different instruments – they all rotate instruments and have different vocalists for different songs. Think of them as a female Old Crow Medicine Show meets Gogol Bordello & Man Man with a dash of Pirate Sea Shanty Music.
Katzenjammer is set to release their debut album LE POP in North America on June 1, 2010!
The ladies will also announce N. American tour dates in the coming months, but have already been confirmed to join the 2010 Lilith Tour, along with artists like Sarah McLachlan, Mary J. Bilge, Norah Jones, Loretta Lynn, Sugarland, Metric, Sia and more!
“They came on like a Norwegian version of the B-52’s, pounding a beat and chirping random phrases in unison, but that didn’t last. Soon they were bouncing to a polka (complete with trumpet), or singing in pure close harmony that suggested Scandinavian traditional music, or delivering a cherry-pie recipe over a ukulele-strumming tune suggesting 1920’s jazz (with close-harmony “diddley-diddley-diddleys), or going near-Goth with a raspy song about “walking in the big black woods,†or sharing an a cappella dirge (with a drumbeat) about a dust storm. Accordion, banjo and kazoo came and went; their finale was a bluegrassy bounce. There was no telling what they’d do next, except that it was sure to be deft and charming.”-New York Times
