The album reached number nine in Norway and number 71 in the Netherlands.[2][3] It produced four singles, but they failed to chart worldwide. In 2008, Le Pop was nominated for a Norwegian Spellemannprisen award for Best Debut Album of the Year.[4]

A Kiss Before You Go, the band's second studio album, was released in September 2011. A mixture of folk, cabaret, and rock music,[5] the album peaked at number six in Norway.[2] the album achieved chart success in other European territories, reaching number seven in Germany and 33 in Austria.[6][7] A Kiss Before You Go was certified gold by the Bundesverband Musikindustrie (BWMI).[8] The album's lead single, "I Will Dance (When I Walk Away)", was a minor hit in Germany, peaking at number 32.[9] A Kiss Before You Go: Live in Hamburg, a live album, and its companion video album followed in 2012.
