Datarock

Datarock is a Norwegian electronic rock band. The band, known for wearing red jumpsuits, formed in 2000¹. Original personnel were Fredrik Saroea, Ketil Mosnes and Kevin O'Brien, who soon hired Tom Mæland. O'Brien and Mæland later left the band, but the duo of Saroea and Mosnes continued the project.
