Smerz is the Norwegian duo consisting of Henriette Motzfeldt and Catharina Stoltenberg, based in both Oslo and Copenhagen. On May 23rd, the duo will release their second album Big city life on the Danish label Escho.
With collages that capture everyday moments and dreams, Smerz tell stories - experienced and imagined - about apathy, loneliness and inner monologues, about love and friendship. Smerz move at the intersection of different genres and are inspired by the compositional techniques of classical music as well as the joy of experimentation in computer music and the immediacy of pop music - all within the aesthetic framework of a girlish existentialism.
The duo's discography includes the critically acclaimed debut album Believer as well as the EPs Have fun and Okey. Further projects include the pop fantasy project ALLINA and the choral piece Tidligere den dagen with the vocal ensemble GAEA.
