About the artist

Thor & Friends

Thor & Friends are a delightful musical outfit led by percussionist extraordinaire Thor Harris. Described by some as a "weirdo chamber folk" group, this eclectic collective brings together a range of unconventional instruments and sounds to create truly unique and captivating music. Harris, a former member of Swans, has assembled a talented group of musicians who share his vision of creating music that is both experimental and accessible. With influences ranging from minimalist composers like Steve Reich to psychedelic folk artists like Vashti Bunyan, Thor & Friends have carved out their own niche in the music world. Their live performances are a sight to behold, with Harris leading the charge on everything from vibraphone to clarinet to various homemade percussion instruments. The sense of camaraderie and playfulness among the band members is infectious, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for audiences to lose themselves in. Thor & Friends' self-titled debut album received critical acclaim upon its release, with reviewers praising its intricate arrangements and enchanting melodies. Tracks like "Medieval," with its hypnotic vibraphone melodies, and "Circus," with its playful circus-like atmosphere, showcase the band's versatility and creativity. In a music landscape that often favours conformity over creativity, Thor & Friends stand out as a breath of fresh air. With their quirky instrumentation, infectious energy, and undeniable talent, this group is sure to continue making waves in the music world for years to come.
