Gazpacho is a ridiculous name – yet the Norwegian band’s music is anything but. Since the late 90s they’ve cultivated progressive vignettes with the imagery and transportive powers of twisted fairy tales, even as they face profoundly human questions.
It’s fiercely intelligent music, delivered with the light touch of first-rate songwriters, which they are. By day, singer Jan-Henrik Ohme works for Sony Music Norway, while keyboard player Thomas Andersen composes written jingles for major ad campaigns and releases solo piano records.
