Listen to Girl is the combination of guitarist/singer Christian Winther together with multi-instrumentalist Ina Sagstuen. With alluring songwriting, an innovative mindset, and breezy production, the duo embrace their love for post-punk, indie, folk and bossa nova.

Fysisk Format is a record label, run from the basement of Tiger Records in Oslo, Norway. The record store has been going since -96 and the label since 2008. Our purpose is to make the best underground music heard!

Earthly Habit is a record label for exploratory music based in Oslo, with bands such as Torg, Listen to Girl, Moskus and Delish.

Formed in 2011 Skadedyr is a twelve piece orchestra based in Oslo, uniting young and creative musicians from the norwegian jazz, improv and experimental rock/pop scene.
Their live shows are always celebrated and they have been praised as a group pushing the musical boundaries of a large jazz orchestra. Still they insist on being a band, not an orchestra - rehearsing and performing without sheets.
The compositional ideas are often created by Heida Mobeck, Hans Hulbækmo, Lars Ove Fossheim or Anja Lauvdal, alone or together. But Skadedyrs sound is highly based on collective arranging and a lot of improvisational freedom. 
To this day they have released three critically acclaimed albums (Kongekrabbe, Culturen and Musikk!) on the label Hubro/Grappa.
The members are also known from bands as Skrap, Moskus, Broen, Trondheim Jazz Orchestra, Atomic, Hanna Paulsberg Concept, Beam Splitter, Nørstebø/Strid/De Heney, Okr, Girl and Karokh.
Inspirations range from Trondheim Jazz Orchestra with Kim Myhr and Eirik Hegdal, Spontanious Music Ensemble, ICP, Arca, icelandic marching band music, temple music and medieval music.

".. whose debut is an eloquent, bewitching, often playful and occasionally unsettling gambol with the spirits of Lowell Mason, Jaga Jazzist, Fats Waller, Zdenek Liska and Talk Talk." 
8/10 STARS, Sharon O'Connell, Uncut

"Skadedyr continue the sense of fun shown by bands like the Mothers of Invention, Loose Tubes and Jaga Jazzist and do it in a way all their own. Lovely stuff!"
Peter Bacon, The Jazz Breakfast

"...som om bandet som erhyret til bryllup og begravelse har stokket om på notene og forsynt seg av drikkevarene."
Audun Vinger, Dagens Næringsliv

"Bandet er forfriskende også fordi de opererer på tvers av alle sjangre. På en låt som Bie beveger de seg over hele det musikalske spekteret uten at det spriker" Trygve Lundemo, Adressa

"Med denne kongekrabba er det er skapt norsk jazzhistorie." 
Roald Helgheim, Dagsavisen

".. sjelden har vi vel hørt et mer kreativt ensemble på et norsk plateselskap… For dette er grenseløst og nyskapende - fra start til mål." 
Jan Granlie, Jazznytt

"En frisk dose ung norsk storensemblemusikk i sonen der vante tonale og rytmiske mønstre trues av kreativ oppløsning." 
Terje Mosnes, Dagbladet

"Ingen over og ingen ved siden, for vi har ikke hørt noen annen som tilnærmet har et slikt ekspressivt og eksepsjonelt konsept innen norsk jazz"
Ole Foss, Romsdal Budstikke.

Skadedyr har på kort tid opparbeidet seg et rykte som et forrykende liveband, og det nye albumet Culturen ligger nærmere opp til liveuttrykket enn debutalbumet Kongekrabbe, som lydmessig hadde et mer syrebadet uttrykk. Denne gangen møter vi et mer akustisk-klingende band, og man kan enda lettere høre at det er en samspilt gjeng vi har å gjøre med.
