| Album Description: |
Visually inspired spoken word with experimental music: piano, guitar, soundscapes and samples. Much of the writing for “I thought so” is taken from Sofia’s journals, and put together with the inspiration from Patrik’s music. We originally thought this would be a social commentary, but quickly recognized it as personal observation. Which, we decided afterall, cannot be separated from society. So it’s a commentary on the craziness of our society and the chaotic beauty inside our minds and hearts, and in all of life, especially when you look at it, listen to it, and live it. |

| Band Bio: |
Sofia Piel is a writer, photographer and theatre teacher, and she could easily spend a Sunday afternoon covering her hands in paint and glue. Patrik is a graphic designer and pianist, who is always trying to get his friends to listen to the latest most amazing CD he discovered. Snö is the first collaboration for Sofia and Patrik since working together for three years as journalists for a travel magazine in Gothenburg. This is their first album and they like it.
“We can’t take ourselves too seriously. But that doesn’t stop us.”
