A musician from Liekanger, in the Sogn region of coastal Western Norway, now currently splitting her time between Berlin and Bergen. Her second album “Opticks” was released last Autumn by the British label FatCat, to critical acclaim and Silje has undertaken a comprehensive tour around the release including six weeks in the US with DM Stith and a month in Europe with Mice Parade and Stereolab’s Laetitia Sadier. A host of international dates are already in the diary for 2011. “Norwegian’s second album opens a new world of possibilities” – Allmusic.com, 4/5 “Nes’ songs filter the steady repetitions and gradual transformations of minimalist music through the aesthetics and instrumentation of bedroom electronica and dreamy indie rock … " – Pitchfork, 7.3/10 “It’s an album with it’s own strongly beating heart … It encapsulates every season, every landscape, every pace. " – Consequence Of Sound, 4/5
