The Whitest Boy Alive is a musical group based in Berlin. The band comprises singer/guitarist Erlend Øye, who is also a member of the band Kings of Convenience, bassist Marcin Öz, drummer Sebastian Maschat, and Daniel Nentwig on Rhodes piano and Crumar. Erlend Øye is from Norway, while the rest of the band is German.

They started as an electronic dance music project in 2003 in Berlin, but have since slowly developed into a band with no programmed elements. Their German record label is Bubbles. Their debut album Dreams was released on June 21, 2006 in Germany. In July 2007, Modular Records signed them to their UK imprint and the band played their first UK performance with New Young Pony Club at the London Astoria in September 2007. The album was released in the UK with the single Burning in November 2007. The Band released their second album Rules in March 2009. It was recorded in a newly built studio located on Punta Burros, Nayarit, Mexico.

The band will start The Whitest Boy Alive + The New Wine tour in April, 2009 (Germany, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden).

i only listen to 'don't give up' and yet it's not in their top tracks, i guess either i or every other listener besides me must have weird taste.

With 2009 almost over it's safe to say "Rules" will be in my top 10 albums of the year.
