Biography
The Asteroids Galaxy Tour is an indie and psychedelic pop band from Denmark’s capital, Copenhagen. They formed in 2007 and have built a reputation of their songs featuring in Film, TV and Commercials.
It was in their formative years that the band decided to record a demo. The demo was heard by Amy Winehouse’ management, who asked the group to open for her in Copenhagen. This was the band’s first live show, and soon after, their track “Around the Bend” was chosen by Apple to be used in the new iPod Touch commercial and to be aired worldwide from December 2008. After the success of the commercial, this track became the band’s biggest single to date helping to launch the band onto the international stage. They even supported Katy Perry on her 2009 summer tour in Europe.
The band has had a lot of promotion, with their works being used in TV commercials, Film and TV shows. Myer, Australia’s largest department store chain used the song “the Golden Age" to launch their 2009 summer range and SBS Television used the song “The Golden Age” to promote the U.S. television series, Mad Men. Even Heineken International used the song in the 2011 commercial, “The Entrance” where the band in fact featured in the commercial.
“Around the Bend" is featured in the Anna Wintour documentary movie, The September Issue which was released in 2009. In 2008, three songs by the band were featured on the Gossip Girl episode “It’s a Wonderful Life”. “Around the Bend" was featured in the NBC TV series Chuck in episode 209. “The Sun Ain’t Shining No More” has been selected as the theme song of the Canadian action comedy television series InSecurity, which premiered on January 4th 2011.
The band has experienced chart success with their song “The Golden Age” which became a hit in Austria, Switzerland, Spain, UK, Canada and the US. They released an album called “Bring Us Together” on September 15th 2014.

The Asteroids Galaxy Tour
Shooting to some kind of fame after ‘The Golden Age’ was used to market a popular beer, all the hard work put in by Danish act Asteroids Galaxy Tour since forming in 2007 has finally started to pay off. The core duo of Mette Lindberg and Lars Iversen write complex pop songs with killer hooks filling their albums Fruit and Out of Frequency with great songs that could really all be used to market whatever you like, such is the power of the band’s catchy hooks. Some of AGT’s songs have been used during rather well-known TV programmes like Chuck and Gossip Girl, while Mette herself appeared as a guest on Never Mind the Buzzcocks back in 2008. But never mind all that, what about the music itself? Well, Mette Lindberg is the one to watch, a bundle of energy and in possession of a powerful voice that one moment can sound helium-filled, the next she’s belting songs out like a soul singer. They will of course play ‘The Golden Age’, its swinging 60s feel supplemented by a dose of electronica but there’s also the giddy ‘Heart Attack’ which has crazy synths burbling over a little garage rock riff and the set will close out with the funky brass attack of ‘Major’ – which, in fact, is by far their best song. It will probably turn out that you know more Asteroids Galaxy Tour songs than you think – and the ones you don’t? Well, that’s just a bonus.

Despite sounding more like a live schedule than a band, Danish pop outfit The Asteroids Galaxy Tour have forged quite a reputation for themselves following the release of their debut album 'Fruit' in 2009. The brain child of vocalist and producer Mette Lindberg and Lars Iversen, TAGT have become known through central Europe as one of the liveliest and most involving acts on the circuit.
Bounding onstage in a wash of colour and sound, the five musicians take their place and warmly greet the crowd before performing a double opener of 'Hero' and 'Push The Envelope'. The energy is clearly infectious and the audience are beginning to move, jump and even dance in places under the command of the likeable Mette. They work through a setlist primarily comprising of tracks from 'Fruit' yet there is some new music showcased this evening with similarly shiny production and infectious melodic hooks. There is no doubt that The Asteriods Galaxy Tour are one of the most fun artists currently working.
