Polara

Bio:

New Polara album "Beekeeping" out now! Buy it on

Ed Ackerson solo albums also available!

Polara has been making its own brand of experimental pop noise over the course of five albums, three singles, two EP's, and five record labels. Combining hooks and sonic mayhem in ways both futuristic and classicist, the band is releasing its long-awaited fifth album Beekeeping on Minneapolis' Susstones label. Most importantly, the band's core members Ed Ackerson, Jennifer Jurgens, and Peter Anderson are still creating new sounds on their own terms and having a blast doing it.
