'Without' is a song about removing something from your life, and that feeling of withdrawal. Weather it’s a habit, a job, a lover or anything else, letting go leaves you with a particular fleeting feeling that we’ve tried to recreate in the song. Production wise, we always try to renew ourselves, while still leaving our sound intact. We love having acoustic guitars, bass and drums as the backbone, while electric guitars and keyboards weave in and out, acting as an additive to the song as well as the overall sound.

___________________________________________

Formed in early 2016, around a common fascination for American folk/roots music, Windmills and Giants deliver honest and soulful Americana with a modern edge. The duo takes inspiration from American artists like Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, Iron & Wine, and Brian Fallon, but also fellow Norwegians like Minor Majority, Madrugada, and Kings of Convenience. By combining traditional musical elements often associated with Nashville, with modern songwriting, Windmills and Giants creates a sound that feels both familiar and refreshing.

After their unmistakably folk inspired 2017 release 'Teen Angst For Twenty-Somethings', and 2018’s 'Somehow The Ship Remained Floating', the band went searching for something different. Something to breathe fresh air into their folksy sound, without compromising the focus on lyrical content that has been so prominent in their previous releases.   

This resulted in 2021’s ‘Are We There Yet?’, which hints towards a darker and, at times, more experimental sound than anything they’ve ever done before. Diving into their eclectic taste in music and letting anything be fair play in the writing and recording process makes ‘Are We There Yet?’ their most ambitious and diverse release yet.
