Born in 1982 in Oslo, Einar Stenseng has been playing and writing music all his life. Hearing the opening chords of The Velvet Underground's "Sweet Jane" at the age of thirteen, his life was saved by rock 'n' roll. He dropped out of school at the age of seventeen, to fully indulge in his musical and literary interests.

Einar took a trip to Berlin in 2003 and ended up staying there for more than three years. Enjoying the cheap rent and alcohol of the German capitol, he became a well-known figure in Berlin's underground music scene.

His debut album was recorded in Berlin's Claustrophobia Sound Studio in 2005. It was produced by British rock legend Nikki Sudden (Swell Maps, Jacobites) and featured musicians such as Jochen Arbeit (Einstürzende Neubauten), Darrel Bath (Ian Hunter, Dogs D'Amour) and Chris Hughes (Mick Harvey, Hugo Race).

Later in 2005, Einar worked with Nikki Sudden on Nikki's last album, The Truth Doesn't Matter, which was posthumously released after Nikki sadly passed away in March 2006.

Einar's debut album was released in Norway in September 2006 to an extremely favourable reception from critics. Norwegian critics compared Einar to rock 'n' roll greats such as John Cale, Nick Cave, Bob Dylan, Lou Reed and Tom Waits, and he was hailed as a great song writing talent. In the autumn of 2006 Einar toured Norway, Germany and Austria, partly together with his fellow Norwegian Al DeLoner (Midnight Choir).

Einar was one of six singer/songwriters portrayed in the documentary BerlinSong, directed by acclaimed German filmmaker Uli M. Schüppel (The Road to God Knows Where, Der Platz). The movie was selected for and shown at the Berlinale film festival in February 2007.

Einar now lives in Oslo and is working on a new album. Alcohol is very expensive and he is always broke.
