FatCat first became aware of Norwegian multi-instrumentalist / singer / songwriter Silje Nes through a unique and charming demo she sent us in early 2006. Silje grew up in the tiny town of Leikanger, in Sognefjord, the largest fjord in Norway, but has been living in Berlin for the last few years. Silje has previously played in an indie pop band, and other highlights from a diverse musical background include playing timpani in an orchestra and bass drum in a marching band.

Her latest album ‘Opticks’ was released in September 2010, and is a gently enchanting new home-recorded record dramatically upgrades Silje’s sound and sees her making considerable advances on her debut.
