Famous Debates in the Forest + Kuoppala

Famous Debates in the Forest

Stavanger's oldest misfit teenagers are back at it again. With hefty loans and low centers of gravity, the trio digs their way out of the basement. If their backs hold up, the band promises an entertaining night with their somewhat aggressive approach to rock.

Since none of the members have listened to new music since 1997, their songwriting is rooted in a transitional era when no one knew if they were indie, punk, or heavy. It's bound to get loud, hard, and enjoyable.

To earn some extra cred points, they've brought along Kuoppala as the opening act. Kuoppala is the musical solo project of actor Matias Kuoppala. Heavily influenced by classic singer-songwriters like Joni Mitchell, as well as bands like The Beatles and R.E.M., Kuoppala plays intimate, melancholic chamber pop. In other words, it's going to be a musically diverse evening.

Last but not least, the proceeds from ticket sales will go directly to Doctors Without Borders. Support them; it's the least you can do.
