Interview with Vocalist of OCTAVIAN WINTERS, RIA AURSJOEN On Her Solo Work and Debut Album, Strand

San Francisco born artist AURSJOEN  released her debut album "Strand" via Stratis Capta Records, produced, recorded, mixed and mastered by William Faith. AURSJOEN is the project of Ria Aursjoen, who is vocalist and keyboardist for critically acclaimed post-punk outfit Octavian Winters, who released their debut EP 'The Line or Curve' in 2023, followed by their 2024 'Nebula / Velveteen' single with electronic- industrial legend Mark Pistel (Meat Beat Manifesto, Consolidated). A classically- trained singer and multi-instrumentalist, her musical past is steeped in genres ranging from Celtic and Nordic folk to darkwave and progressive metal. Aursjoen is joined by Octavian Winters bandmate Stephan Bryan Salit, who lends his creative flourish to the mix, contributing dynamic and atmospheric guitars on two songs.Cover Artwork by Ria Aursjoen.
