Fjørt (stylised as FJØRT) are a German post-hardcore band from Aachen, formed in February 2012. They have released four studio albums and one EP, and are currently signed to the record label Grand Hotel van Cleef.[4]
History
[edit]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.[1] 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.[5] In the subsequent months the band embarked upon their first headline tour of Germany, Austria and Switzerland alongside We Never Learned to Live.[2]
