Wolves Like Us

At an after party in the small hours of one cold winter night, the band Wolves Like Us was born. In contrast to many plans made at such an hour of the morning however, this one actually came to fruition and the band began to practice together soon after. A few short months later the band recorded their first five track demo, which ended up actually getting airplay on key show NRK Lydverket and was subsequently awarded an Urørt track of the week in May. This really got the ball rolling and they were soon confirmed for Oslo’s Øya festival playing both the club day and Camp Indie last August.

Living Daylights

The Living Daylights is an original instrumental trio that features dense, funky, and occasionally odd-metered grooves from the very exposed two man rhythm section, fronted by free-flowing, hard-blowing saxophone. Their consistently stunning live performances are quickly gaining them international accolade amongst enthusiasts of jazz, funk, rock, and even some of the more "outside", progressive-jazz audiences.

The Vanguard

In order to create the Vanguard, Zeus pinned a gigantic map of the world to the wall in his office. He picked up four golden darts. Blindfolded, he reached for the first dart, drew his hand back and flung it to the map. "Ah I see, the singer shall be from the mountains of Virginia," and so, Aaron Barr was born. Flying through the air, the second dart dropped down in Przemysl, Poland. "How cute, a potato baby will be the guitarist.
