Frokost

Working on number 2 as you read this

About Me

Frokost was formed in 1992 or 1993. It’s Danish. It’s two guys in a Copenhagen livingroom surrounded by loads of instruments and stuff that’ll have to work as instruments.

Frokost puts all songs out on www.frokostmusic.dk for free mp3-download. You can sign up for our newsletter at the same page and be alerted for every new song.

Frokost has released one album - "The Sound of My Wooden Chest". It has 17 songs. It’s flippin’ sweet. It’s for sale at the following stores: (in Denmark) GUF, Sound Station, Circles, Rock Uglen and (in the U.S.) Other Music (buy online, ships everywhere) and Cake Shop NYC . Otherwise just write us a mail at frokostmusic at gmail dot com - we can work it out. Limited edition of 500 copies, though.

Frokost is working on new ideas on both sides of the Atlantic these days. New songs will appear around summer 2008. We hope.

Frokost says hi.

New song: Too full of potential

Latest song. Also probably the last one in about half a year, since the band will be divided by the Atlantic Ocean (not an enemy to be underrated). We will however continue to work on ideas and return...

This has been under its way for.. way too long. We've been talking about making this album for years, but we've (naturally) mainly concentrated on actually making the music. It wasn't until mid-2007, ...

New song: Introducing The Disappointments

This song took around two days to finish. If only that kind of songwriting would happen more often!

New song: Explosions In The Guy

The first moniker of this song was "Halleluja". How we got from that to "Explosions In The Guy" will remain our dirty little secret (as if we had a clue).
