SKLOSS

SKLOSS first formed in Austin, TX as a husband-and-wife duo between drummer Karen Skloss (Moving Panoramas) and guitarist Sandy Carson (Iglomat) during the COVID lockdown. Surrounded by drums and amps and the need to play loud, the sound of SKLOSS became a response to the crazy world just outside their window. Jams became songs, while the noise level, experimentation and distortion went up to a volume much louder than you’d expect from a duo. “Living next to the woods has something to do with it. We started to use music as an outlet, like most everyone during that time, we were so cooped up,” says Skloss.
Outside of the new creative frontiers explored with the band, Skloss is also a filmmaker who has been on Barack Obama’s pick list and edited seminal films about artists Syd Barrett and Townes Van Zandt, and Carson is a former professional BMX pro rider turned photographer and cinematographer.
