Soda Fountain Rag – Don’t Kill The Clowns
With all the musical love poured on Sweden, it seems that the other Scandinavian countries never really get their chance to shine. In an effort to rectify this a little, I am delighted to bring you some Norwegian indiepop. Soda Fountain Rag is the one woman project of Ragnhild Hogstad Jordahl, whom I’m very thankful doesn’t record under her real name, or taking my mp3s would be a bitch. She sings and plays everything on her recordings, which is all the more impressive given the level of instrumentation involved. The main thing though is that it’s perfect indie pop, not a million miles away from what Belle & Sebastian may have sounded like had they surfaced in the sixties.
