Baertur (NO) is associated DATAROCK member Ketil Mosnes’ new project. The DIY indiepop-casiocore-lofi-alliance has existed for no more than a year, but the project has allready released an acclaimed album on DATAROCK's Young Aspiring Professionals and performed live across Europe and the US. Baertur invites you to "the most thrilling and possibly confusing party you will ever attend on this side of the polar circle"!
