About Kakkmaddafakka

Kakkmaddafakka is an indie rock group from Bergen in Norway, founded in 2004. The group consists of members Axel Vindenes, Pål Vindenes, Stian Sævig, Kristoffer Wie van der Pas, Lars Helmik Raaheim-Olsen, Sebastian Kittelsen and “Kakkmaddachoir”.

They are known for their high energy live performances and their pioneering use of social media.

Kakkmaddafakka released its first LP “Down to Earth” on 24 September 2007, which reached number twenty on the VG Topp30 Album list and brought the band nationwide attention in their native Norway, despite a largely negative critical response.

The band is one of many artists who emerged from Bergen, which the Norwegian press has called the “New Bergen Wave”, as it is reminiscent of the many successful bands that emerged from Bergen in the late 1990s and the early 2000s.

Kakkmaddafakka has performed at numerous festivals including Iceland Airwaves, Montreux Jazz Festival, NXNE, CMJ Music Marathon, Southside Festival, Hurricane Festival, Eurosonic Festival, by:Larm, Area 4 Hove and Melt! Festival in Germany, where they were introduced on stage by prominent Bergen musician and friend Erlend Øye.

In 2008, Kakkmaddafakka was nominated as Best Norwegian Act in the MTV Europe Music Awards, along with Madcon, Ida Maria, Karpe Diem and eventual winners Erik og Kriss.

On 25 February 2011, Kakkmaddafakka released their second album Hest. The album was produced by Erlend Øye and released on the label Bubbles. The first single taken from the album was “Restless”.

On 28 June 2013, the band released their third album Six Months Is a Long Time. It was again produced by Erlend Øye and released on Universal Music Germany, featuring the singles “Someone New”, “Young” and “Forever Alone”.

In early 2014, pianist and founder member Jonas Nielsen left the band and was replaced by Sebastian Emin Kittelsen.

The band released their fourth album titled KMF on 18 March 2016.
