Jordsjø, a dynamic duo hailing from Oslo, Norway, takes listeners on an extraordinary musical adventure with their third studio album, 'Pastoralia'. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Olivier Messiaen, Popol Vuh, and Anthony Braxton, along with Scandinavian folklore and jazz, and early British prog, the band masterfully blends progressive rock with enchanting melodies and a touch of folk charm. This album spans a wide musical spectrum, from minimalist mellotron passages to full - blown rock tempests. Recorded and produced entirely by Jordsjø between March and November 2020 in the basement of Bjørnerud Farm in Våler, Østfold, 'Pastoralia' is a thematic journey centered around dreams, a yearning for freedom, and the fictional world of 'Pastoralia' where days are like tropical nights in Northern Norway and forest folk dance around campfires. The band features multi - instrumentalist Håkon Oftung and drummer Kristian Frøland, with special guest appearances by Ola Mile Bruland, Håkon Knutzen, Vilde Mortensen Storesund, Mats Lemjan, Christian Meaas Svendsen, and Åsa Ree. A must - have for fans of Scandinavian prog and a hidden gem for newcomers.
