Confirmation Bias emerged in the wake of the tribute band Rusj – A Working Man´s Tribute to RUSH, which was formed in 2013. The core of this band wanted to challenge themselves creatively – to write and record original material. Since 2016, we have completed the line-up, written, rehearsed, and recorded new songs. We are finally ready to step into the spotlight!
​
Our music may be tentatively described as a crucible inspired by seventies´ art rock and prog, modern rock and a touch of metal played by experienced, skilled musicians with good, eclectic tastes and a well-developed bullshit filter.
​
The band members:
Lars Martin Aasgård (main vocals)
Jon Martin Haarr (bass, pedals, keyboards, and vocals)
Ørjan Risa Svensen (electric and acoustic guitars, vocals)
Kai Gabrielsen (drums and percussion)
Fredrik Skår (keyboards and vocoder)
Eirik Hanssen (acoustic guitar, mandolin and vocals)
​
Among the bands the members of Confirmation Bias are or have been associated with are: Runsj, Magic Pie, Mayah, Sea of Dreams, The Optimæ, Millennya, Misplaced Neighbourhood,
The Brothers of Mercy, Philharmonien, The Fire X Project, Taking Back October and Diamond Dogs
​
This is the story so far. Watch this space for the imminent release of new, exciting music, the release event, and further gigs!
