Style: Indie
No and the Maybes are an eclectic three-piece from Copenhagen, Denmark, on a mission to save and reclaim the catchy melody from wedding singers and Eurovision Song Contest.
This Danish chamber pop ensemble have set their sights on creating vivid, engaging yet easygoing music with an after kick, taking inspiration from 60s sounds through to more thoughtful 80s New Wave music. No and the Maybes make it their obligation to bring something fresh and exciting to the table, celebrating that little extra something to catch your attention and make you fall in love: surprising hand claps, finger snaps, a choir arrangement or an unexpected instrumentation.
Their DIY principles mean that everything they produce is lovingly stamped with their own unique signature, be it their music, videos and graphical designs. Similarly their live set breaks down the conventional lead singer set-up and gives way to a more democratic use of the stage, the band forming a line with a standing drummer and all members sharing vocal duties.
No and the Maybes' eponymous debut album was released in Denmark on the reputed A:larm Music (The Raveonettes, Micachu and British Sea Power to name but a few) towards the end of last year and led to the band hitting no.1 in the Radio charts, being nominated at the Danish Music Awards, performing on national television and being lauded across the press and media.
