COPENHAGEN, DENMARK, May 7, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ – Acclaimed Danish actor Claes Bang, known internationally for his leading roles in The Square, BBC’s Dracula, Robert Eggers’ The Northman, and Apple TV+’s Bad Sisters, has long maintained a passionate parallel career in music under the moniker This is not America.
As the sole permanent member of This is not America, Bang has been writing and releasing original songs since 2008. For the actor, music serves as a vital creative outlet and personal antidote to the collaborative, director-driven world of film and theatre.
“Writing songs is a process where there’s no other boss than me,” says Bang. “It’s been a necessary relief and a source of pure creative freedom for years.
”The name This is not America is taken from the David Bowie track and carries no political meaning. It was originally chosen as a practical alias to help his music gain radio airplay in Denmark, where stations at the time were reluctant to play material from actors.
Bang continues to write, record, and release new music from his base in Copenhagen under the This is not America project.
About This is not America This is not America is the musical project of Danish actor Claes Bang. Since 2008 he has released original songs under this name, balancing his celebrated international acting career with a deeply personal songwriting practice.
