Entering the world of Bodebrixen, means entering the lives of Andreas Brixen and Aske Bode. Two Danish boys, whose hearts beat for music that makes you want to dance and smile, and acknowledge your true geeky self. The love for happy and unpretentious pop music, and the nature of the boys means that this band is a unique exception in Denmark.
The boys met in 2006 at a jazz summer camp. As they decided to team up, they entered MySpace, and within three weeks they landed a record deal. They didn’t believe the label at first, ‘cause, as Aske puts it: “The demo wasn’t THAT good”. But in the following period, Bodebrixen created a lot of media attention. Especially blogs and radiostations outside Denmark loved the band – and that also took them by surprise: Personally I do not get it! These people, who listen to so much music….what do they want with our little band from Denmark?”
The music is placed in the tension field between I’m From Barcelona and The Whitest Boy Alive. The song writing in Bodebrixen takes a lot of inspiration from Swedish song writing tradition, and the craftsmanship of writing the good, simple song. Their lyrics have a distinct touch of irony and sweet bitterness, that is rarely heard in pop music.
“You say I need to grow up
I just need to sit in the backseat of the schoolbus and kiss
but maybe that’s not old enough
to suit your needs”
(Suit your Needs)
In 2008 Bodebrixen released their self-titled debut album. Now they are re-releasing it for a hungry, international crowd, remixing the sound and adding even more power to the pop. The new album is titled: What’s inside’s what’s outside. “We had 50% hits on our first album – now we have 80 %. Our sound has been improved, but without compromising what has always been our mission; having a heart in all of our songs. I see this record as a “Hello-hi-world-here-we-are” – statement, which will be followed by something even bigger. We have infinitely great expectations”, says Aske. Bodebrixen’s nickname as the most important, undiscovered band in Denmark should soon be out of order. Bodebrixen is ready to conquer the international music scene.
They enter the stage with 7 live band members and bring with them a ton of instruments. With well-written songs and multi-instrumental arrangements, confetti and balloons they build up their festive music. The set-list is filled with danceable tunes, pumped up with bongo drums and na-na-na-na-na-na-choir.
So, what do you say? Let’s grab our best dancing shoes, our clock radioes and our key chains, and let’s put our arms up for Bodebrixen, yeah?
