History Orango

"The energy is all over you. When the band breaks loose there's no way

you'll stay unaffected. This is classic rock inspired by the masters of the

sixties and seventies. Well composed and no compromise whatsoever." This is

how Aftenposten, one of the leading Norwegian newapapers, described Orango's

debut album "Villa Exile" - a great piece of work which nearly took too long

in the making. After two sold out EPs and hundreds of gigs the band took

some time off, only to work up a sweat: "Villa Exile" was rehearsed and

recorded by themselves in their own studio on their own terms, only helped

by the deep love of the sound that fires them up. Orango is without doubt a

part of a long tradition that includes heroes of the golden years, all the

way from Free and Fogerty to the likes of Crosby and Charles. When the band

combines their brilliant tunes with a Mars Volta-like energy and 'feel' only

achieved by the masters of Motown, that's when it gets mindblowing. And

Orango will be true to their vision as they're getting ready for the rest.

The band is now preparing for more gigs, and 2010 will see new long awaited

Orango releases.
