Kite

Very few artists have been able to combine an adventurous sonic approach and a pop sensibility as well as Kite. They've created a dark wonderland of droning synthesizers and throbbing beats, full of majestic melodies.

The band was formed in 2008 by singer Nicklas Stenemo, who grew up in the small Swedish village Stenslanda and keyboard player Christian Berg who came from the slightly bigger town Tranås.
