Biography

Hailing from Bergen, Norway, indie pop duo Kings of Convenience channels the gentle, harmony-rich vibes reminiscent of Simon & Garfunkel and Belle and Sebastian. Since their debut in 2000 with the acoustic album "Kings of Convenience," the duo has evolved their sound, with albums like "Quiet Is the New Loud" and "Riot on an Empty Street" showcasing their mix of hushed melodies and expansive arrangements. After a hiatus, they returned in 2021 with "Peace or Love," featuring collaborations with Feist and released under EMI.

Comprising singer/guitarists Erik Glambek Bøe and Erlend Øye, Kings of Convenience gained recognition through European festival appearances before signing with Kindercore to release their self-titled debut in 2001. Their journey continued with successful albums like "Quiet Is the New Loud" and "Riot on an Empty Street," leading up to their Billboard 200 debut with "Declaration of Dependence" in 2009. Following a lengthy hiatus, they reemerged in 2021 with "Peace or Love," marking their return and showcasing their signature harmonies and introspective songwriting.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low

How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
