New Politics

New Politics is a rock band from Copenhagen, Denmark
It is made up of David Boyd, S�ren Hansen, and Poul Amaliel
After writing songs together for three years for their respective solo albums (which were never produced), Boyd and Hansen realised they had a group forming
In 2009, the duo sent in two of their songs ("Stress" and "Money") into the Danish National Radio P3’s Karriere Kanonen (“Career Cannon”) competition
Of the 973 bands that entered, New Politics were one of 42 selected to perform—despite not yet being an official band, and not having selected the final line-up
Boyd and Hansen hired Paul Amaliel to play drums
The new trio were among the top four winners and went on to play in a major music festival in Denmark
They currently reside in a loft apartment in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, New York
