About De Lillos

deLillos is a Norwegian rock band formed in Oslo 1984, and for more than 20 years they have made their mark as one of the most popular Norwegian-speaking bands alongside DumDum Boys, Raga Rockers & Jokke & Valentinerne. The group was formed by Lars Lillo-Stenberg in 1984. The other members were the bassist and vocalist Lars Fredrik Beckstrøm and the drummer Rune Lindstrøm. In 1986 Lindstrøm left the band and was replaced by Øystein Jevanord. In 1988 Jevanord left the band and he was replaced by Øystein Paasche. In 1991 the band was completed by the guitarist Lars Lundevall. The new line-up recorded these albums: Varme mennesker (Warm People) (1991), Neste sommer (Next summer) (1993), Mere (More) (1994), Sent og tidlig (Late and early) (1995), Stakkars (Miserable) (1997), Kast alle papirene (Throw away all the paper) (1999) and Midt i begynnelsen (In the middle of the beginning) (2002). Their debut LP "Suser avgårde" (1986), is regarded as one of their most popular records. The lyrics are very popular because they are very naïve & philosophic. They released their final record in 2002; "Midt i begynnelsen". In 2005, they released a compilation which is named "Festen er ikke over... det er kake igjen." ("The party ain't over... There's more cake left"). New album out now: "Trist å være glad" 2011.
