Episode 21: Guro Skumsnes Moe (Norway) - "Resistance"

Lo-Fi Podcast

I have to say that even though the last 30 plus days have been a whirlwind of confusion, emotions and uncertainty, I feel extremely lucky because these last two episodes have been conversations with two musicians who I greatly admire and whose music is among my favorite. Last episode was Robin Wattie from Big Brave and this episode I’m really excited to bring you a conversation with Guro Skumsnes Moe from Norway who is involved with many projects but primarily her band MoE. I came across Moe only in the last year but was instantly taken by their raucous energy, elements of noise and punk and the growling vocals of their front woman Guro Skumsnes Moe. After digging through their discography, I came to find that Guro not only plays the electric bass but studied double bass, also plays Octabass and works with a multitude of noise and experimental groups like Sult, The Touchables and collaborates with other great sound artists such as Keiji Haino and Pain Jerk from Japan just to name a few.

In this episode, we talk about looking for different avenues amidst the Corona Virus Pandemic, her introduction to Bass at an early age, the recording and writing process, and more.
