  • Description

    It wouldn't be surprising if V.O.'s Boris Gronemberger has crossed your path before. He is a Belgian singer-songwriter, composer, guitarist, vocalist, and percussionist whom the label Matamore calls their cement and edifice.

    A musician of abounding talent and hyperactivity, Boris has played alongside a large and diverse group of artists including Francoiz Breut, Soy un Caballo, Raymondo, Chacda, Ideal Husbands, Stars of the Lid, Venus, The Grandpiano, and Zop Hopop. Within his own band, V.O. (short for Version Originale), the full spectrum of his vision unfolds.

    His new album Obstacles, released on Matamore in Belgium is now finding a second home on the UK label Folkwit. It was recorded in Brussels at "Sumo Studio" by Julien Paschal and mixed in Cardiff by Charlie Francis (High LLamas, REM, Soy un Caballo).

    'Obstacles' is a beautifully arranged collection of songs and musical pieces showcasing an extraordinary talent certain to find fans among followers of Calexico, Howe Gelb and the like.
