THUS:OWLS is a creative, poppy and freeminded group of musicians. THUS:OWLS was brought together by Erika Alexandersson with the purpose of letting the music playing in her head reach other ears and hearts. The members of Thus:Owls met one by one, spread over years, in Stockholm.
Erika Alexandersson, lead singer and composer, is part of jazz duo Josef och Erika and played with Loney Dear, Cecilia Persson, one of the originators of the modern progressive jazz group Paavo, Martin Höper, has toured the world many times over with many different groups, such as Koop, Ola Hultgren, also playing with many other bands, one of the most notable names being Sub Pop’s Loney Dear, and the rare bird from Montréal, Simon Angell, known for his work as a key member with Patrick Watson.
If there had to be a dictated explanation of what THUS:OWLS is and does musically, it might fall somewhere in the vast area of alternative experimental pop. It’s grand, enchanting, and harsh at the same time.
”The songs are fantastic, hoarse but sharp, black and merry, hot tempered and leisurely, coquettish and humble, and yes, almost impossible to describe”. – Dagens Nyheter 4/5
”An unusually rare, original and great swedish record” – Soundofmusic
