Biography

Minimalist weirdo-folk duo raised in the forest by a mystic sage who would most often take the form of a wild dog.

They released their debut album “Wolf Like a Stray Dog” on January 15 2013. It is available on their website norwegianarms.bandcamp.com.

The record is comprised of eleven introspective songs written during songwriter/mandolinist Brendan Mulvihill’s year long fellowship in Tomsk, Russia, nestled in the heart of Siberia. Self- described as an “ember glowing in the distance of an otherwise frozen taiga”, Wolf Like A Stray Dog deals with themes of homesickness, discovery, frustration, and wanderlust.

Thematically, it is an album about the quest for identity, a resistance to permanence, adapting to new environments, questioning one’s knowledge and perspective, and never being satisfied with what you know. It’s wanderlust and curiosity, distilled and neatly packaged into sonic bursts of intense energy. Simply put, it’s apparent that Norwegian Arms suffers from a chronic case of the human condition.
