Varde - Biography


This band's profile is 'invisible', meaning that it's much less prominent on the site - either because it's incomplete, or maybe doesn't entirely fit MS format.


Biography

Varde was founded in 2017 by Koll (vocals), Nord (guitars) and Dar’n (drums).

Koll and Dar’n had previously worked together in the band Alsvartr, and Nord was the outsider being welcomed in. Nord was active with the band Nordjevel at the time, but the seed that later became Varde was planted when he met Koll through session work in 2016.
Ever since the days of Alsvartr, Koll had been collecting Norwegian 19th century poems that he envisioned using in a musical context.
Varde went to work, and in 2018 their debut single Island was released, shortly followed by their 23 minute EP Asgaardsreien. These releases were recorded in several locations, most notably in an off grid cabin using a diesel generator to power the recording equipment.
