Danish 4-piece indie band, moi Caprice, rose to underground fame when they hit the no. 1 slot on the Danish Alternative Chart as the first unsigned band ever. The highly dramatic “The Sun & the Silence” held the top slot for 3 consecutive weeks at the end of 1997, proving the band among the most promising of the dawning Danish underground. Still situated far from any music scene, in the farthest reaches of Northern Jutland, moi Caprice took to the road playing some of the largest scenes and festivals in Denmark before signing with the underground label Lidocaine at the end of 1998.
The contract proved nearly fatal to the band as Lidocaine collapsed during the recording of their debut, and they found themselves shattered across the country without any contract. 3 years passed before the band re-emerged, during which time they developed a nearly fanatical cult-following, their limited ‘97 demo being sold at large amounts across the country. 2001 saw the members situated in Copenhagen and with the addition of a new bass player the band had found their current line up. In January 2002 this constellation gave their first concert at a soldout Copenhagen venue. The release of their debut EP 2 months later proved moi Caprice back in style, the title song “Daisies” went straight into the top slot of the Alternative Chart staying there for 7 consecutive weeks, thereby making it the biggest hit on the chart the same year. This turned the song into a minor radio favourite on the largest national Danish radiostation, P3, as did the next EP, Summerfool, released September the same year, and the band found themselves ending the year with a nomination for “Talent of the Year” at the annual Radio Awards.

oh also.. thieves like us is their best song ever. It's moi caprice's equivalent for mew's that time on the ledge, and the crash's thorn in my side. (sum of my favourite songs ever)
