Enorm

ENorm started in 2003. They released their first album Real Today the same year. One of the songs from this album, 12th Man, was written for a documentary about the Dutch soccer team FC Twente when they won the cup final in 2001 and is still sung out loud in the FC Twente stadion during socker games.

Their second album Enonymous was released in May 2005. This was celebrated with two great concerts. The reactions of both fans and critics were more than positive. The presentation of the album was done live by two of the best known Dutch dj’s: Coen and Sander from 3fm. The single Answers ended up in the Dutch Top 100.

Over the years, ENorm has built a great reputation as a live band. They have appeared onstage with both national and international artists. A few examples: Sting, Golden Earring, Tower of Power and Van Velzen, Van Dik Hout, Krezip and Ilse de Lange (the latter four being Dutch of course :)). ENorm has also made their appearance on TV, on both regional and national channels as well as on regional and national radio.

At the moment the band is working hard on finalizing their third album which has been produced by one of the best Dutch producers: Holger Schwedt. The singles from the new album will be released in May and August, the album itself will be coming out in September. For a sneak preview of the coming album click here.
There is more:

Since 2005 the band performs it’s own pop-theatre production: Kerst met Ballen (which translates somewhat like Christmas with Balls, think Christmas, Christmas trees… Christmas balls errr… right… Christmas with Balls :)). The production started out as somewhat of a joke in a local pub, but the reactions of the public were so positive that the show made it’s way into a local theatre the following year and was sold out completely. In 2007 the production was performed in four different theatres and at the moment ENorm is busy with the preparations for the 2010 shows. To watch pictures and videos of the past Christmas with Ballen shows (good combination isn’t it?? :)) click here.
From 2006-2008 the band organized their own ENorm festival. At the moment we are looking into the possibilities of organizing the festival again in 2011.
