Herodes Falsk is one of the most popular and richest Comedian who was born on July 9, 1954 in Drammen, Buskerud, Norway. Kim Bard Hansen, born 9 July 1954, is a Norwegian comedian and actor. He is also an author, songwriter, and actor. Falsk is most well-known for his work in the musical comedy trio Prima Vera with Jahn Teigen, Tom Mathisen, as well as his continued collaboration with Mathisen following Prima Vera’s dissolution in 1984. He is often called Norway’s first standup comedian.

Prima Vera performed their first concert together in October 1976. They continued to tour extensively the following year. Prima Vera’s comedy shows featured a mixture of sketches, Mathisen and Teigen music, as well as monologues by Falsk. Their trademark lime green tights and silly costumes made them famous. The self-titled debut album Prima Vera, which was released in September 1977, failed to chart, but it was well-received enough to allow the guys to release a second album the following year. “Arne Belinda” was one of the songs that was recorded for their debut album. It was a mock version “Anna Lovinda”, which was recorded many years ago by Erik Bye with different lyrics. Prima Vera was denied the right to use the song because Bye, the original song’s composer, refused to give Prima Vera permission to use it on their album. This angered Falsk, who included “Arne Belinda”, on their debut album’s tracklist, with the line “Censored By Erik Bye” underneath.

The unexpected success of “Endelig!” saddled JFRRB with the label of being a humor band, which was a label they did not want. Even though JFRRB’s concerts had always contained an element of comedy, Jonas Fjeld and the other members regarded themselves as serious musicians, so in order to distance themselves from the humor band label, they dropped the silly stage costumes and “Rock n’ Rolf” from its name and became the Jonas Fjeld Band. No longer required to perform clownery on stage, Falsk left the band in 1976 to pursue other projects.

In addition to their albums and touring with their music/comedy shows, Prima Vera also made two musicals, both written by Falsk. The first was Fantomets glade bryllup (The Phantom’s happy wedding) which was performed on Centralteateret in Oslo in 1978, and became a box office success despite lukewarm reviews. The second musical was named Fisle Narrepanne i Tyrol and was performed at Centralteateret in 1981. Both musicals heavily featured Prima Vera’s own brand of humor and silliness. They also made a film which premiered in the summer of 1983 called Prima Vera og soga om Olav den hellige (Prima Vera and the saga of Olav the holy). The film received generally poor reviews, and many critics viewed it as a rip-off of Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

The band received a record deal in 1973. For Falsk (who was still the band manager), it became easier to book concerts. The band had already released three albums by late 1975 and felt that they were not getting enough support from their record company. They wanted to be fired from their contract. They decided to create an album with the worst music they could imagine. Falsk was assigned the job of producing the record because he had no prior experience in this field. Endelig was the album’s name. (Uff, ikke na igjen?) Translated: At Last! (Oh no! (Oh no, not again?

Kim Hansen was raised in Drammen and was born there. At the age of 15, his career in showbusiness started when he met Terje Jensen (a young guitarist/songwriter from Drammen). They shared a common musical taste and listened to the same artists, including Jethro Tull. Jensen was also a member of Frosk, a local band. Hansen was the band’s manager.

This was when Kim Hansen, now Herodes Falsk, became. According to his autobiography he noticed that Frosk and its members looked like ordinary long- haired boys with average names and he needed to change their image to succeed in the music business. Terje Jensen took the stage name Jonas Fjeld and continues to use it today. Hansen was later called Herodes Falsk and other members of the band also adopted eccentric stage names. The band changed its name to JonasFjeld Rock n’ Rolf Band and began wearing bizarre costumes on stage. Falsk joined the band to keep with the new image. He didn’t sing or play an instrument, but he would dance on stage telling jokes, reading dirty poetry, and doing other crazy things.

After leaving Jonas Fjeld Band, Falsk hooked up with his childhood friend Tom Mathisen. Together they wrote a collection of comedy sketches and humorous songs in the summer of 1976, and were later joined by former Popol Vuh singer Jahn Teigen whom Falsk had become friends with on the road. Both Mathisen and Teigen were accomplished musicians, and although Falsk was no musician himself, he had in his own words become a half-decent songwriter during his years with the Jonas Fjeld Band. Falsk, Teigen and Mathisen also shared a common sense of absurd humor, and decided to form the musical comedy group Prima Vera.

After Prima Vera’s breakup in 1984, Herodes Falsk and Jahn Teigen did not speak to each other for 15 years. Even when a compilation album of the band’s greatest hits called Absolute Prima Vera was released in 1994, Teigen and Falsk/Mathisen held separate press conferences to promote the album. However, in 1999, after the funeral of their mutual friend, guitarist Marius Müller who died in a car accident, Teigen and Falsk talked for the first time since the breakup, and cleared the air. In March 2000, at a memorial concert for Müller exactly one year after his death, Prima Vera performed for the first time in 18 years at Rockefeller in Oslo.

Falsk and Mathisen had little contact with Teigen in 1984 as Teigen and Anita Skorgan toured extensively in Norway and Sweden to support the Cheek to Cheek album – but in November 1984, Teigen contacted Falsk and Mathisen, and asked them to join him for a series of shows in Stockholm. Even before the shows, the climate between Teigen and the other two Prima Vera members was poor. With little time for rehearsals, they decided to perform basically the same show they had performed in Oslo two years earlier, with only minor adaptations for the Swedish audience. The show was a disaster, and was followed by a bitter argument backstage. The same night, Falsk and Mathisen returned to Norway without even saying goodbye, and with that Prima Vera was history. In his autobiography, Falsk writes that he never spoke to Teigen again for the next 15 years.
