Bay Area native, Ryan Karazija, has found inspiration in Reykjavik, Iceland. It's this inspiration that epitomizes the sound of Low Roar, which Pigeons & Planes describes as wonderfully evocative music and Acid Stag hails as the Icelandic version of Grizzly Bear. After moving to the small nordic community in 2010, Karazija wrote and recorded Low Roar's debut, self-titled album with the help of Grammy winning producer/mixer Andrew Scheps (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Adele). After releasing the album in November 2011, Karazija recruited drummer Logi Gumundsson and the two toured Germany, Poland, Lithuania and a myriad of other European countries, eventually joining the Iceland Airwaves and ATP festival lineups, as well as supporting indie favorite Soko. Now with Leifur Bjrnsson on keys, Low Roar is releasing their second album, 0, on July 8, 2014 which features Icelandic darlings Amiina on strings and is co-produced by Andrew Scheps and Mike Lindsay (Tuung). We also have their self-titled debut album available. The black vinyl components of both contain a digital download card within their gatefold packaging.
