With their previous album Visitor gaining and overwhelmingly positive critical response on its release, Dadafon showed their growing artistic strength and creative ingenuity with the release of their equally acclaimed follow up, Harbour.

Recorded at the end of an incredibly busy year in 2003, which saw them perform over 40 gigs in both their native Norway and internationally, Dadafon began to reach beyond small, specialist music crowds, out into rock venues, festivals and jazz clubs reaching an ever-growing audience. Building their own studio on the docks of Trondheim they took this renewed live energy and started to capture their songs live in the studio.
Harbour was recorded during the autumn of 2003 and mixed in Oslo in January 2004, the themes on the album continuing the musical and the lyrical aspects of Visitor with a funkier, tighter band and more energetic rhythm section powering a new energy in the songs.
Strong melodies and the urgent danceable rhythms bubble beneath the stirring melodies and arrangements, which combined with the band’s unique use of strings behind the lush vocal harmonies of Kristin Asbjørnsen, creates an album of intense emotive passion and seductive dark beauty.
