KOLEŻANKA
5 QUESTIONS KOLEŻANKA
Advertisement
WHO ARE YOU?
I am Kristina Moore, I am a maker and player of music and perform as “koleżanka”, I am the 1999 summer speed champion at the Peoria Boys and Girls Club, I am a lover, I am a fighter, etc...
WHAT DO YOU DO?
I play multiple instruments, I write and perform music with myself and with others. I notoriously and obnoxiously create twenty tracks in a song for backing vocals alone. I enthusiastically enjoy eating potatoes in all of their beautiful and unique preparations. I knit bucket hats over and over again because I have yet to make one that fits my very small head. I stare at dogs often and have probably stared at your dog. I read alone in a bar because I like being in proximity to people noise. I send long-winded, caffeine-induced texts about thoughts and ideas to friends in the early morning, despite that they often live across the country in a different time zone
WHY DO YOU DO IT?
It's compulsive! If I don’t do it I fear I will simply disappear!
WHAT'S HAPPENING NOW?
I’ve been waiting to play shows and be on the road again for so long, and have been waiting to put this record out even longer! I truly can’t believe it's finally happening, and I feel so lucky, so fulfilled, so relieved, so ready for wherever I go next. I am already making plans for record #2 and have a mountain of new material waiting to be sifted through. But for now, I am so ready for the immediacy of sharing things live again, and for this record to live outside of my brain and my computer.
WHAT'S THE HOT TOPIC?
I think the hot topic in music right now is listening to Haha Sound by Broadcast and other records you heard when you were twenty over and over in unwavering awe and feeling completely amiss in conversations about new artists and bands because you’re not emotionally prepared to accept someone new into your life
We are playing our first live band show since pre-pandemic at The Sultan Room in Brooklyn with Nation of Language on August 19th. We have some other shows in the works, and you may find us over on the west coast this early winter...
