Bretton Woods appears on bistandsaktuelt.no

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

In an in-depth analysis of the concept of developing country as a musical genre, banjo player Erlend Seilskjær, explains why this music has yet to see a commercial and artistic breakthrough:

- We aim at both hillbillies and intellectuals, but it’s hard to find venues and settings were both groups meet in search for common musical entartainment. The traditional country-loving audience do not share our values and on the other side the academics don’t like country music. This, of course, creates a huge barrier on our way to success.

WANTED: Dead or live?

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

No, we are not dead – yet. But we are playing live developing country at Gamla Tuesday 16th of June!

We sure have been gone for a while, but, hey, we’ve been busy writing new songs for you all. And we have to admit that all though good governance is the buzzword in development nowadays, we sure don’t comply with such standards. The band is truly a administrative train wreck and this gig is truly a miracle. But despite bad management and few public appearances, the band has been enjoying a creative flow the last year and several new songs on burning issues will be performed!

So giddy up and get your hat and head to Gamla Tuesday 16th of June! Doors open at 20.00!
