21-05-2008 ponoka
it's been a little quiet around ponoka lately, but for a good reason. they're busy recording their second album in their own studio in wilnis (somewhere in the dutch countryside, near utrecht). it's expected to be finished sometime in the summer, but unfortunately it will probably take a while before we can let you listen to any new stuff. we promise it'll be worth the wait though; at volkoren we're pretty excited about ponoka's new sound! we'll keep you posted here.
due to the recordings ponoka won't be playing too many shows the coming months, but some are coming up this summer. stay tuned.
