5 Questions With - Donkeyboy

Picture
We love Donkeyboy at P!B!B! Like, LOVE them. The Donkey…boys (does that work?) answered a few of Michael Feloni’s (our lovely writer) questions. Thanks boys, from all of us at Pop! Bang! Boom!

1. What was your reaction winning Best Norwegian Act at the European MTV Music Awards? How does it feel to represent your country?

We think it's a great to be nominated again! It meant a lot to us last time, and it means a lot to us this time as well. It's really an honor to represent Norway once again! We didn`t win this time, but congratulation to Erik & Kriss who won!

2. Are there any new albums in the works? EP's?

Yeah , we have just stared to write songs again. The plan is to release some new songs next year. If it's going to be an hole album or an EP we haven't decided yet. But it's going to be better than ever, that's for sure!

3. How would you personally define your genre and were there any artists that influenced your sound?

We define it as electronic pop music. Someone once called it "retrofresh pop". That's a pretty good definition of our genre. We are of course influenced by the synth pop bands from the 80's like Depeshe Mode, Pet Shop Boys, a-ha, Alphaville and so on. But we're also big fans of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and Fleetwood Mac. 

4. Are there any plans for any US action soon?

They declined to answer this question, as they don’t have a lot going on in this country

5. (We ask this of everyone) What are some bands/singers that you guys love that our readers (and us too!) might not know, but should totally check out?

In general we think that people should check out more Norwegian music. There's really many great artist and bands from our home country, but there's only a few of them that's known outside of Norway. I we could mention just one, we would probably say Susanne Sundfør. She writes amazing songs, and she's a fantastic singer. Check her out!


Now, if you love Donkeyboy like we do (or if you don’t know them), there’s no better time than now!
