One of the most acclaimed Russian indie acts in recent years, Motorama is a five-piece indie-band from Rostov-on-Don, although they sound rather Nordic than as a band from the Southern river-port of Russia.
Driven by intense post-punk rhythm section, their songs are full of dreamy twee pop tunes and accompanied live with self-made visuals of thick forests and waterfalls — which makes Motorama a band with an attitude of their own. Although they have released just one album “Alps” in 2010 and did it on their own, they performed as headliners at major Russian festivals such as Moscow’s Afisha Picnic that gathers 50000 people and played at large European festivals like Exit in Noviy Sad.
In 2011 they went on their first European tour and performed at Kill Your Pop festival along with Deerhunter, Hype Williams, Shackleton and others, Paradiso Club in Amsterdam and over twenty other venues across Europe.
