History

On 23 November 2012, the band released their first EP, Demontage, on Truelove Entertainment. Although it only consisted of six tracks, two music videos – for Glasgesicht and the title track Demontage – had also been released. During the time leading up to the release of the band's debut full-length album, Fjørt had played around 150 shows. Then, on 21 March 2014, D'accord was released on This Charming Man Records.

2015 saw the band take a step towards signing to a larger label, Grand Hotel van Cleef, through which they released their second album Kontakt on 22 January 2016.[2] In the subsequent months the band embarked upon their first headline tour of Germany, Austria and Switzerland alongside We Never Learned to Live.
