Lady Moscow is an ostentatious sextet born in the capital of Norway. Lady Moscow combines the bold rhytms and tonalities of Balkan music with energetic folk
rock, with a crew consisting of vocals, guitar, accordion, mandolin, violin,
contrabass and drums. With
her unorthodox instrumentation and her invigorating live shows, she has given
name to a musical genre of her own: folk'n'roll.
Although playing only on acoustic instruments, Lady Moscow is known for her wild
and enchanting universe of sound and
rhythm, and on stage she can make any electric band both look and sound like a
sissy. Throughout her concert history
Lady Moscow has acquired the honorable title "Oslo's best live band."
Since the debut in june 2007, Lady Moscow
has played almost 70 concerts, visiting several of the
largest venues in Norway as well as festivals abroad, such as the Fusion
festival in Germany and Suset
festivalen in Denmark. Lady Moscow released her debut album “Barrel dance” in
early autumn 2008.
SAID ABOUT LADY MOSCOW
”Oslo´s best liveband”
Ina Rosenberg Stavrum, Nettavisen Side2

mixes Tom
Waits’ introvert, satanic elegance with Gogols almost self erasing mood and
craziness´.”
Petter Lønningen, Bergens Tidene
”Wide ranged genre dance that works quite magnificently.”
Ingrid Ovedie Volden, Puls.no
”..what Tom Waits would sound like if he lived in a jolly living room in Eastern
Europe
around the year 1900.”
Studentersamfundet, Trondheim
”A genre eldorado.”
Anders Fjellestad – Farsunds Avis
”Strange, but exceptional fun.”
Fredrik Refling – Mediemakt
”Tom Waits on acid.”
