Danish 4 piece band moi Caprice rose to underground fame in the late nineties when they entered the top slot on the Alternative Chart with the song The Sun & the Silence as the first unsigned band ever. A few years would pass before the band released their first actual single, Daisies, and despite it being a slightly awkward ballad, the song turned into a minor hit in Denmark, and with 7 consecutive weeks in the top slot of the Alternative Chart is was the biggest hit on the chart in 2002. The band ended the year with a nomination for best new band of the year at the Radio Awards.
The next single, Artboy Meets Artgirl, proved moi Caprice one of the finest art rock bands in the country, and paved the way for their 2003 full-length debut, Once Upon a Time in the North, which was widely praised by the critics.
After an extensive tour moi Caprice released their second album, You Cant Say No Forever, in early 2005. Again the reviews were amazing, some claiming it a true masterpiece. Both To the Lighthouse and My Girl You Blush turned into hits, on both the Alternative and the mainstream charts. In early 2006 moi Caprice was nominated for the grand prize of the Radio Awards.
moi Caprice has been widely acknowledged for their skilful song writing, their apt ear for the pop tune in a dark melancholic musical setting, their highly intelligent lyrics in an original style that is inarguably the sound of no one but themselves.
The band has just released their third album "The Art of Kissing Properly".

Hej.. :) Jeg kan se at I spiller i slaglse men jeg kan ikke helt finde ud af hvilken dato. På jeres myspace står der den 24. november og på slagelsemusikhus. dk står der den 22. november. Kan I fortælle hvilken dato det er ? - Sandra
Jeg glæder mig til at høre jeres nye album. Vi har også indspillet vores netop udgivede debutalbum i Sweet Silence - vi bør jo næsten spille support for jer til efteråret;-)
your music is basically wonderful and building a bit of a soundtrack to my life these few days. especially 'to the lighthouse' which is very good to sleep to despite being sort of synthy, if you turn it up loud enough it just makes a wall of pretty noise :)
please keep adding songs because danish music is oh so hard to find in australia!
Hey Moi Caprice, ville bare lige fortælle jer at jeres musik er virkelig fantastisk, den fremkalder altid en form for melankoli og nostalogi, som ikke rigtigt er til at placere, lidt ligesom at længes efter noget man aldrig har haft, eller kendt. Venlig hilsen Christian(Fra Off the wall. )
