Altered Zones

Fingers sticky with cotton candy, you grasp the lap bar on the tilt-o-whirl. Your eyes open and close, overwhelmed by a swirl of bright, blinking lights. Your heart beats faster than the butterfly wings fluttering in your stomach and with every spin the thrill intensifies. Norse Horse's "Swells" perfectly encapsulates the romance of the carnival. The giddy guitars and intertwining melodies jibe perfectly with iconic images Alice Cohen has selected for the video. Carefree and comforting, the happy SoCal pop is a stroll down the boardwalk and a ring around the milk jug. --Yours Truly

Grids, Norse Horse's forthcoming release on Family Time Records, is streaming now over at Bandcamp. The EP drops August 23rd in cassette and CD-R formats, just in time for the dog days of summer and a first kiss on the Ferris wheel

Norse Horse will be playing a FREE SHOW with Painted Palms and Brother Mitya on August 8th in SF. Be there!
