Indie rock group Ex Norwegian is on the brink of redefining the genre with their unpretentious, addictive sound that is free of ‘woe is me’ and self aggrandizing. Instead, irresistible, hook-laden songs – both musically and lyrically – combined with a comfortable and inviting live show is steadily drawing in audiences and critics, alike. Formed in 2008, Ex Norwegian has released two albums, Standby (2009) and Sketch (2011), both receiving praise by traditional and digital media locally, nationally and internationally, as well as their ever demanding and expanding fan base. Ex Norwegian is Roger Houdaille (vocals and guitar), Nina Souto (bass guitar and vocals), Arturo Garcia (drums and vocals) and recent additions Lucas Queiroz (guitar, vocals), Michelle Grand (vocals).
