Ex Norwegian

Ex Norwegian is a Miami-based indie rock outfit founded by frontman Roger Houdaille in 2008, blending punchy power-pop hooks with a cheeky, retro-inspired edge. Known for their playful genre-hopping and DIY spirit, the band’s sound nods to ’60s psych, ’70s glam, and ’90s alt-rock, all wrapped in Houdaille’s wry lyricism. Over the years, they’ve churned out a steady stream of releases—from the raw energy of *Standby* (revisited in its 13th-anniversary edition) to the quirky experimentation of *Teen Bakery* and *Thot Patrol*. Their 2020s work, like *Sooo Extra* and *Real Bad Bunny*, leans into cheeky satire and lo-fi charm, proving they’re still happily genre-defiant. Whether cranking out garage-rock bops or offbeat concept tracks, Ex Norwegian remains a cult favorite for fans of unpolished, hook-driven mischief.
