Acting Quiet, started in 2010, is an indie band that consists of Johannes and Maxine, from the Art Nouveau city Aalesund in Norway. The smooth acoustic, often melancholic sounding tracks creates a lush and emotional soundscape.

After the first self-released album “Lucky”, Acting Quiet decided to continue self-releasing albums independently. For the EP “Pascal”, the genre evolved from a purist acoustic music style to indie pop. Continuously evolving, Acting Quiet released “Lotus” that explores electronica oriented instruments as well as using a wide variety of orchestra in their tracks.

For their new album “Kaizen“, Acting Quiet wanted something new and challenging to work on. Bringing along the previous experiences from their previous albums and combining what  worked out well on them were the direction they wanted to take “Kaizen”.

Kaizen, a Japanese word mostly used in business terminology, may be briefly defined by “continuous improvement”. This is something they reach for with everything they do so they decided to dedicate their new album to this.

Well even though my picture is of me having the time of my life behind the kit i also love jamming some improvised jams on my guitar. Yes i have made many mistakes and bum notes but the idea here is to have a load of my ideas in one place for your enjoyment and to keep record of them for future use
