Description

The album was penned during a time of personal unrest that, rather ironically, paralleled the peak of Katzenjammers career – a twelve-year pursuit culminating in three albums, multi-million streams, tours spanning Austin to Australia, and praise from the likes of The Guardian, The Quietus and BBC Radio 6Music, alongside personal plaudits from David Byrne and Steve Lamacq. The band earned bonafide export status, with an enamoured international fanbase driving sales in excess of 500.000 and hitting Certified Gold status in Germany with sophomore release “A Kiss Before You Go” (2011). “Skinhorse Playground” owes much of its sound to producer Hasse Rosbach (Moddi, Turbonegro, Team Me), who called in an eclectic mix of jazz composers, punk purists and LA-based session legends not least of which, Jeff Babko (Neil Young, Beck, Frank Ocean, Jimmy Kimmel Live) – to push Sol even further from her Katzenjammer comforts.
