Artist Biography
Available in:

Katzenjammer are a Norwegian band from Oslo, formed in 2005. The band consists of Anne Marit Bergheim, Marianne Sveen, Solveig Heilo and Turid Jørgensen. The members of Katzenjammer met in 2004 while studying at a private music school in Oslo. The band was formed in 2007 while listening to Anne Marit Bergheim perform the song "Wading in Deeper" on the piano. They were brought together by a common feeling of being "the outcasts at the school." Katzenjammer felt that their music school didn't encourage originality, but "only wanted to teach what had been done."
The band is named after the Katzenjammer Kids, the oldest comic strip continually in syndication. They chose this comic strip because they noticed that they resembled the characters in it. Literally, the term Katzenjammer is a German loanword and means "lament of a cat". Figuratively, it can be interpreted as "hangover".
