MOLO from Bergen, Norway, is all about contemporary rocky shore music. The band – deeply embedded within transatlantic musical traditions – has received inspirations from bands like Fairport Convention, The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, Flying Norwegians, Lindisfarne, Eagles, and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young.
This inspiration – coupled with creative imagination, elated musicianship and a multitude of difference-making experiences, has finally allowed MOLO to come up with a fresh mixture of chords, melodies and lyrics that merge and depart in ever-changing cycles of novelty and tradition.
Earthsongs – MOLO’s long overdue album – is set for a January 11th release.
