Nancy Drew started playing melodic country inspired music in Oslo 2005. In august 2006 we recorded some of our material at Spydeberg solstudio Norway. Martin Hagfors worked as a recording engineer and producer. The songs are written by Nina except "Love Is Here", which is written by Johan, and "After All" which is written by Bjarne and Nina.
During the last three years, Nancy Drew have been playing concerts around Norway, mostly in Oslo, facing a bigger crowd each time. With new songs and better versions of the old ones, it was time to do some recording again. The new demo was initialized by the Norwegian legend producer Jørn Christensen in a simple rehearsal room in Oslo. With the exception of some additional vocals and strings, done at Jørns place, the music was recorded with the whole band in one room, during two days, in January’08. Nancy Drew is becoming more and more recognized by the Norwegian concert crowd, they have been A-listed on the Indie radio channel, Radio Nova, and the Norwegian broadcasting channels NRK P1, and P3 has also played Nancy Drew's music in many occasions throughout the last two years. The way it looks now, the debut record will be out within a year. In the meantime, Nancy Drew continues to do what they enjoy the most; to play concerts – for as many people as possible!

Tusen takk, kjære Nancy Drew, min heltinne i alle år - hvilken groove, hvilken stemning!! En ære å tilhøre Deres bekjentskapskrets. Når ser vi Deres vakre åsyn i Bergen?? Maggi venter med lengsel og smerte (og gift...)
Hehe... jaja, var litt flaut det der :) Til mitt forsvar skal det sies at foreldrene mine bor bare 15min unna svenskeland. Kylling og rødvin og ikke noe flæsk ble det gitt. Holdt kvota tilogmed... hehe
