Heroes & Zeros

Norwegian band Heroes & Zeros are setting out on a U.S. tour in a couple weeks, and six of the eight shows take place in Alaska. That’s because the poppy and energetic rock group’s visit comes courtesy of former Alaskan Erik Braund’s Nordic Hus, an organization the engineer, producer and musician has set up as the self-described “Norwegian Music Embassy in America.”

Nordic Hus is bringing up a second band from Norway later this year, The List. But for now, here are upcoming Heroes & Zeros tour dates. Look for a feature on Nordic Hus in Play in the next couple weeks.

March 2 – Piano's, Manhattan, New York
March 4 – Mountain View Community Center, Anchorage AK
March 5 – Chilkoot Charlie's, Anchorage AK
March 6 – The Alibi, Homer AK
March 10 – Maxine's, Girdwood AK
March 11 – The Blue Loon, Fairbanks AK
March 12 – Chilkoot Charlie's, Anchorage AK
March 14 – Arlene's Grocery, Manhattan, New York
