Greetings!
Time to break the radio-silence after a few slower months with some exciting news & announcements!
MUSA KASA news:
Kosmic prog-pop phenomenon Kos Mos embarks on its first ever tour!
Kos Mos reboots its gigging engine literally “straight from the top” after a couple years of dormancy!
The group crams itself into a minivan and hits the road for an epic six concert tour criss-crossing the Norrbotten region of Northern Sweden. “The Amazing Intergalactic Kosmic Prog-Pop Norrbotten Takeover Tour 22” concludes with a show on the familiar stalwart stage of 45 Special in Oulu, Kos Mos’s home turf.
For the curious listener Kos Mos dishes out an extraordinary cocktail of groovy n’ jazzy soul, live-band adaptations of various EDM styles and mind-bending musical experimentations pushing the boundaries of modern funky pop/soul music akin to its contemporaries like Hiatus Kaiyote, Thundercat & Knower.
Kos Mos’s introspective lyrics deal with the quirks of relationships, vhs-tape tinted nostalgia, poignant observations of the modern way of life and the search for one’s identity and sense of meaning through the lens of an inescapably growing up millennial.
“We’re super excited to bring this music out to the public again after a long break and we’d love to see You in the audience having a great time with us!” - Kos Mos

The recordings sessions for “new prog-rock album project” have begun!
These three eccentric gentlemen hit Wolfbeat studios in Kempele, Finland two weeks ago to lay down the basic tracks for this mysterious project. After composing the music around 2015-2018 and finishing the arrangements and lyrics last winter it feels absolutely amazing to finally get to record the final product for this passion project! The sessions for the album will continue throughout this summer and hopefully we have some epic progressive music to share with you at some point in autumn.
On top of these gig announcements and upcoming sessions, there’s still some unreleased music from last year waiting in the vault, so needless to say,
Stay tuned folks!
