Let's get to know the guys in the band even better! In the near future, ShowChampa.com will publish interviews with each member of the band, starting today with...

Kjetil Nilssen
Born: 29/05/92
From: Porsgrunn, Norway
Plays: Vibraphone/percussions
Relationship status: Available

Q: So Kjetil, tell us - who are you?
A: I am the strange guy who's standing all alone in the corner of the stage during our gigs, playing percussions and vibraphone.

Q: What made you start playing music?
A: I started in a marching band. One of the guys there played a song that I thought was pretty cool. I wanted to know how to play that song, so I started to learn how to read music. Ironically, I never learned that song.

Q: What is the best thing about being a member of Show Champa?
A: Everything. Like all the hot chicks in the front row on gigs. Groupies, in other words.

Q: You got lots of them?
A: Not too many, but some. At least three... (Laughs.)

Q: But you’re single, right?
A: Yes, at the moment...

Q: We’ve heard you are a little proud of your car. Tell us about it!
A: It’s a BMW 318 E36. She is the love of my life, and she will always be.

Q: You’ll never get rid of her?
A: I don’t think so, actually.

Q: Not even in 50 years from now?
A: I really want to have it even then. I’ll just have to fix some rust and stuff.

Q: Tell us something about yourself that nobody else knows?
A: There ain’t a lot to tell, ‘cause I talk too much. If you ever meet me, you’ll probably get to know the whole story of my life.

Q: What’s your favorite Show Champa song?
A: People of the Sun.

Q: And your favorite band?
A: BigBang.

Q: What are your dreams for Show Champa?
A: It would have been awesome to play at Wembley, and I would love to have Susanne Sundfør as a backing vocal.

Q: A combination of those two…?
A: ...would have been delicious.

Q: Do you have any final words for the fans of Show Champa?
A: Come to our shows, for fucks sake!
