Bow To Each Other (NO/CA)

2016

Bow To Each Other is an award-winning Norwegian-Canadian indie pop duo made up of Gunhild Ramsay Kristoffersen from Karmøy, Norway, and Megan Kovacs from Toronto, Canada, both currently based in Oslo. They joined efforts in 2010 when they moved from Liverpool to Norway together, with Megan as songwriter, keyboardist and vocalist and Gunhild as arranger, keyboardist and vocalist.

Bow to Each Other’s debut album The Urge Drums (2014) was released on Jansen Plateproduksjon and produced by Susanne Sundfør. The album was listed as one of the 20 best albums of 2014 in Dagbladet, Gaffa, Øya and Musikknyheter.no, and Dagens Næringsliv wrote that “Norwegian-Canadian [had a] stroke of luck”, while Gaffa gave the album a 6/6, calling it “Stylishly strong, electronic pop elegance”. The single “Darkness” received extensive airplay on NRK P3. That year the band also toured festivals including Bergenfest and Øyafestivalen.

Their 2015 follow-up album, My Heart Is A Target, won the Norwegian Grammy for Best Pop Group, and earlier this year they were Susanne Sundfør’s support act on her Norwegian tour.
