Pop Songs

Porto Geese is rock reaching out into the unknown, seven-league rock!

The Porto Geese twin-guitarists and songwriters Joar and Bendik are childhood friends with a primary school hiphop career that was brutaly grinded to a halt by the merciless suburban divide between skaters and more traditional atheletics. Acute leisure problems in 2016 brought the friends together again for three years of ironic blues jamming until they saw the light and future of the band while witnessing King Gizzard and Swans on a field festival in Portugal: Porto Geese was formed and songs started pouring out. This made up their first album and EP, released by our friends in Sheep Chase. Some decent hype happened and Porto Geese toured with Dion Lunadon (ex A Place to Bury Strangers) through France and Italy, before they went underground for a few years. Slowly, slowly new sounds started to occour in the Porto Geese brewing pot: Pop songs!

The album is produced and mixed by Joar and Bendik and shows a band with a hypnotizing skill to build grooves and dizzying harmonies with remarkable tripping effects. Join the ride!
