- My first time seeing this Norwegian band was at a fairly soulless convention center in Austin, Texas. They transformed that big, open room into an intimate affair. So having them perform at the Tiny Desk, an already intimate space, was a thrill. It was also the first appearance of a flugabone here. Kristoffer Lo plays that mournful horn and Ingrid Helene Håvik compliments the yearning with words that are mysterious, somewhat dark and contain surprising twists.The song titles on their 2014 album Silent Treatment seem more like chapter headings in a crime novel. "Leaving No Traces," "I, The Hand Grenade," "The Man on the Ferry," "Science & Blood Tests" - you get the picture. But this band has a powerful pop side filled with drama made of drums, synths, guitar and the aforementioned flugabone and voice. So glad I get to turn you on to a new favorite of mine. --BOB BOILEN

"Hello, we are high as a kite."
2020...it's 3am...I'm high as a kite....and I don't feel like coming down.
Unfortunately it's March 2022 and I am not high as a kite....
October 2023 not coming down yet
awesome!
I keep discovering great bands here at NPR. Thank you so much for this!
Beautiful.The second song made me cry just a itty bit..nice sentiment for a sentimental guy. Thank you Highasakite..you always have a place for the night with a new fan in Arizona,so please safely travel our way.
Absolutely adored the arrangements and Ingrid Helene Håvik vocals wow wonderful.
Who the hell thumbs downs this? They're bloody perfection!
No one worth mentioning.
ex boyfriends and girlfriends
I love these guys so much. Such beautiful music every time
Saw this band in Tromsø Norway Aug 29 . They were brilliant and they came up with 2 new beautiful songs which completelly blew my mind !
What a band!
I listen to music from all over the world. It is really sad that one of my favorite pop acts worldwide has almost NO recognition in my home country. 6 years and less than 300,000 views is disgraceful. absolutely fantastic music deserving of your time.
I was so lucky to see them in a smaller venue this summer and I dare say that was the most magical experience I have had so far
Fantastic stuff - this is why I come here.
One of the best bands around at the moment. Seen them recently in Glasgow, Scotland. Fantastic.
The TH-cam algorithm has blessed me once more with good music
Their music is so beautiful, thank you for sharing this
She is an amazing singer and her bandmates are incredibly talented. You can see they speak with their eyes .
Saw them yesterday in Brooklyn opening for Of Monsters and Men. They were really good live!
Seen this fantastic band opening for Of Monsters and Men at the O2 academy in Sheffield uk Last November, had never heard of them but they surprised everyone that night, they was amazing live, really good band, love their sound, amazing talented people, hope they do well....
Coming back year after year for this performance. Love it!
Absolute musical perfection, just can't get enough of this band
my favourite band of the moment!
AHHH so happy to see them on tiny desk :')
Wow. Just wow. It’s been a while
Great sound! I love the horn and the oil barrel. Brilliant!
Beautiful music, Thank You!
High as a kite is a very interesting band. I certainly enjoyed this presentation. "No one has seen or heard from him since last Wednesday," call the police!!
2024, I'm getting into their music. Good times.
As always, thank you NPR.
So good. Love these guys.

What is the instrument in front of her? A hammered dulcimer that she strums with her fingers?
jeg kommer fra USA men jeg vite snakker norsk fra mitt bestefar
so close ;)
+Allyson Messina Cool! I was in GA, where were you at?
That giant trumpet has a great sound
@Thomas Mendler, that giant trumpet is called a flugabone. It's in the description area.
So we have a guitarist who plays trombone & he sings? Is he single & is he into men?
OH so that is a Flugelbone! Flugabone? Modern Krumhorn.
I am Norwegian American and wanted to know.
Guitarist who plays trombone ...that's your preference? Why not "Portugese who makes his own mustard at home", or "left-handed poet who collects vintage synthesizers"? Don't let being too picky lead you into loneliness.

He grew up near me. I never met him but remember his name on a NES cartridge in my possession at some point.
yak martin you’re hilarious 😂!!! I’m not picky ... someone who is easy on the eyes, talented, and compatible; that’s all I need. He’s definitely talented!!! Also ... quite easy on the eyes & ears 👂.
Gordon Anderson this description says you’re correct. I’ve never heard of it before ... flugabone.
супер женщина я от нее аж заболдел немножко и солдатик привстал по стойке смирно

Where's Marte?
Thats what I was wondering. Maybe this was shortly before she officially joined the band?
kapitalne!!!
Is the name Finnish, Japanese? ... Oh, spaces ...
I came from Supernatural.-.
the first song was about three minutes too long
Same with the second, this band is no good they need real lyrics
Do you expect anyone to take your opinion seriously with criticisms so vague? You're entitled to your opinion of course but if you don't have any insightful analysis or observations to share then why say anything? That's just as useless as people posting a million variations on "wow so nice I like it! pretty voice!".
lumburgapalooza i salute you ! Have a beautiful day !
+lumburgapalooza wow so nice your statement, i like it. pretty
