Bokassa is a badass Norwegian stoner-punk band that famously got the call from Lars Ulrich who, after claiming to be one of their biggest fans, invited the band to open for them on the 2019 European stadium tour with Ghost. We talk with lead singer and primary songwriter, Jorn Kaarstad, about the origins of Bokassa, touring with Metallica, his favorite music, personal insights into road life, fronting a band, bending genres, being a Reload defender and how Lars responded when Jorn told him they needed to play Fixxxer live! You can find the music of Bokassa anywhere you listen to tunes. Check the links below for ways to support them.
We also draw the five winners of the ITUNES REVIEW contest as well as the PATREON winner of the S&M2 Deluxe Boxset. Thanks to the MUYP family for their enduring support. We love you all. Enjoy!
