Celestial Bums - Cross The Road

Something is brewing in the state of Norway! Kronstad 23 are the latest trailblazers from northern Scandinavia: a creative force exploring the boundaries of musical genres, including but not limited to: psych rock, jazz, post-rock & scandinavian folk music. The group of young players follows the footsteps of Motorpsycho, Elephant9 & El Paraiso’s own Lotus, Fra Det Onde & Kanaan, carving out their path through the musical landscape in seemingly effortless ways! One minute you’re floating on cosmic Pharoah Sanders waters, the next you’re ascending on electrified if-Tortoise-played-Allman Brothers-style jamming.

The band describes their approach as: “Sommermørket is an escape from inhumane technology and politics in search of something that feels authentic. The music breathes in the little that is left of old air and rises slowly into the hazy summer twilight like brittle thoughts that try to connect and fade away.”

Kronstad 23 was formed in Kronstad, Bergen, Norway in the Autumn of 2023. As old friends and musical collaborators, they rekindled a creative spark that had been dormant for over 10 years. Rarely rehearsed and often caught on first take, Sommermørket was recorded live on tape in the studio of Keyboardist Øyvind Vie Berg in Bergen, Norway. The record captures three sessions across one year, from spring and late summer in 2024 to winter of 2025.

LYRICS:
Dylan was right, Dylan was right yes
I lost her and I’ve burned all my bridges
Someone is there, still locked in the apartment
And he’s looking through me, right trough my mirror

Love may be not what you want, but still is what you need
Love may be not what you want, but is what you need

Can you feel our love? Can you feel our love?
She was, indeed she was an illustrated history
Painted in red, oh painted in red
She still remains to me all I ever need
She still remains to me all I ever need, yes.

Love may be not what you want, but still is what you need
Love may be not what you want, but is what you need
