Jomi Massage
biography / portrait
 
She is called the queen of noise, venues book her before they know what she is up to, she is a rebel-face when it comes to discussing music in different national media. She discovers new talents and helps them grow, among these, Morningsiders Strumm.

She started out back in 1995 forming Murmur who blew punk rock of stage with their uncompromising wall of noise.

Speaker Bite Me was the next newborn. Provoking with their counter-reactions to what the scene was up to. Five releases showed all pop, minimalism, noise and almost dogma experiments.

In 2001 Jomi Massage showed her face for the first time. She mixes the gentle with the raw, her acoustic guitar with indulging noise. In 2002 she released two 7”’s on Helicopter Records.

In a world longing for stars, she is an anti star-star, insisting on making sense in every move, trying to be a part of a world insane by reacting towards it like an updated gestalt-hippie. In sound, words and reactions.

So if you meet her, be gentle, she is struggling to stay faithful to the thought that human behaviour can change the world and that humans are coloured by the culture of music.

In March 2004, she released her first full-length album "Aloud", this time, with only English lyrics, but still the same uncontrollable, angry, yet loveable Jomi Massage behind the steering wheel.

She has not chosen an easy way, but she keeps going straight
