SOFA is Norways most important record label for experimental music. Starting up in 2000 alongside the Rune Grammofon label, a new wave of exciting, adventurous music started coming out of Norway. SOFA is counting 65 releases to date and at Cafe OTO on the 26 and 27 of March you can hear four of the label's featured artists.
What to say about these honorable gentlemen. They've been the reference point in experimental music and video for decades and are still on the top of their game. SOFA is extremely proud to release Tilbury and Rowe again after their astonishing 4 cd box - Enough still not to know. In April SOFA will release the new album ‘Sissel’, a recording from Stavanger in January 2017. The album will be available both as LP and CD. This time a long time collaborator with both Tilbury and Rowe, the norwegian video artist Kjell Bjørgeengen, is contributing importantly with his one of a kind images. A must to see and hear !
