BOL&SNAH releases new album

BOL&SNAH released their new album So? Now? on the label Gigafon in november 2015. This is the second album which Hans Magnus “Snah” Ryan participate on. We are very happy to have his guitar and lovely voice in the band. In fact, he is a full member of the band now. The music on the new album is more specific rock, but with influences from more experimental expressions. We had a very nice release tour, which included cities like Stavanger, Bergen, Trondheim, Melhus and Tromsø, and the reviews for the album have been excellent!
