Green Concorde is a Danish indie rock band, founded in 2003. On 8 September 2009 the band members announced on their Myspace-profile that they would no longer be playing together as Green Concorde.
History
On the remainders of The Bella Rocca Band, four musically likeminded, yet personally diverse guys formed Green Concorde in October 2003. From their base in Nørrebro, an area of Danish Capitol Copenhagen with a lively multi-ethnic culture and a history of riots between squatters and police, the band started writing songs inspired by their surroundings.
Outside Denmark, Green Concorde has played venues in Germany, the Netherlands, France and Norway.
