Biography
Golden Diskó Ship (25 year old Theresa Stroetges) is a Berlin based musician named after a golden ship found forever waiting for the party in the harbour of Reyjkavík. She combines a mass of instruments and found objects (guitars, viola, glockenspiel, sticky tape, compact disc cases, toys…) together with perfectly crafted laptop electronica to form a world of beautiful, original and individual music - “…dreamy, experimental folk electronica that sounds like walking on the beach with the sun in your eyes.".
Her live show brings together the fragile beauty of her recordings, combined with a complete understanding of avant-garde pop as you would expect from her list of influences: Coco Rosie, Múm, Cat Power, Four Tet, Scout Niblett… Theresa emphasises the effect of her live show with her atmospheric self-made pixelated video projections.
Theresa has released two EPs: There’s a Chaos (2006) and Bumblebee Behind a Tree E.P. (2007), with a third, Lonesome Cowboy/Christmas Tree, due to be released in the near future. She has also recently collaborated with Reykjavík’s highly regarded Sketches for Albinos on ‘They Meet on the Subway’, (Imoto Records). Golden Diskó Ship has toured throughout Germany, England and Denmark and recently appeared at Berlin’s prestigious Goldmund Festival.
