The critically acclaimed duo made their debut in 2018 with the album "Last things" on Oslo Session Recordings, which received international praise. This is the duo's second album. Since their debut they've had the chance to develop their collaboration as songwriters and performers through extensive touring and/or concert performances at festivals and clubs in places like Japan, South Korea, USA, Germany, Denmark, Italy and Norway.
