Nephew
The bilingual rock band Nephew was formed in 1996 in Aarhus, Denmark. Bandmates
Simon Kvamm, Jonas Juul Jeppesen, Kristian Riis, and Søren Arnholt had met while
studying musicology at Aarhus University, and they quickly developed a modern,
danceable brand of rock music that nodded to the dark synthpop of Depeche Mode.
Kasper Toustrup replaced Jeppesen in 1998, and Nephew made its studio debut with
2000's Swimming Time. The album peaked at Number 15 in Denmark and was followed
four years later by the multi-platinum record USADSB, which turned Nephew into
larger-than-life rockstars...
