Thursday night Baby Woodrose is gonna play at Loppen. They released the album "Chasing Rainbows" on Bad Afro Records october 22. and held a really cool release party at Café Sveik. Only problem was, that is was also the first really cold night in Copenhagen and the place was so crowded that I almost froze my dick off hanging outside most of the time. But the Czech beers was great! The record is more back to the basic 60's sound than the previlous album and has a really nice vibe. Baby Woodrose is the mindchild of Lorenzo Woodrose aka Guf who used to be in the freak-machine On Trial back in the day together with bassist Anders. Beside On Trial and Baby Woodrose Lorenzo has also released drug indulged stuff as Pandemonica and Spids Nøgenhat. Anyway, all that you can read about if you google a bit.Baby Woodrose at Myspace
So whats the fuzz about a Woodrose family? Well, opening for Baby W tomorrow is Aron. Aron is the solo work of former On Trial guitarist Morten Aron who also played guitar with Spids Nøgenhat. He has released a couple of solo albums and tomorrow is actually the release gig for his new album "Djævlens Horn". On stage tomorrow Aron will be joined by Nicolai Vilhelm Tell and Hobitten who plays guitar in On Trial and freaked with Lorenzo and Aron in the one-off project Dragontears.

Dragontears was all about making an album in short time and record the stuff right away. Kind of a session like Desert Sessions or Swamp Sessions. Everything was mixed by Lorenzo and soundman Ralpf Rjeily on acid (so they said). The record "2000 Micrograms from Home" gained high critcal acclaims and was named as one of the best albums in 2007 by Walter from Roadburn.

Beside all this Lorenzo also produced and played drums in The Setting Son who released the selftitled album earlier this year. The record is recorded at Black Tornado studio by Ralph and is out on Bad Afro Records as well as Baby W, Dragontears and the live record by On Trial.

A live record with On Trial? Yes, after they almost blew the tent out at last years Gutter Island Festival at Masnedø Fort the recording by Danish National Radio was streamed and thereafter circulated in the trading society. On Trial chose to release the recording earlier this year as a vinyl only limited to 500 copies. Gutter Island is an institution in Danish underground music and also Baby Woodrose has put out a "Live at Gutter Island" vinyl only.

To round everything off, also the psyhfolk'ish Nicolay Vilhelm Tell is out with a record called "Mushroom Town" under the name of Nicolai Vilhelm Tell and The Teacompany. Nicolai previously played with Aron and the record is out on the label Orpheus Records which is run by - well, Morten Aron ...

The circle seems to be closed in some way. But hey, Lorenzo also lent his vocal to the project The Freeks by Ruben Romano from Nebula ...
