1) Holger is an indie rock band from São Paulo, Brazil. The band started out as a musical project called That’s All Folks in which friends from different bands like Efeito Colateral and Cagedream got together for jam sessions melding folk, country, indiepop and neofolk music. After recording over 30 songs and releasing 5 EPs online the guys decided to turn the project into a permanent band, Holger, re-working several songs by That’s All Folks and recording new material with influences from bands like I’m from Barcelona, Pavement, New Order, Flaming Lips and Broken Social Scene. In 2008, after many months of rehearsal, Holger emerged from the studio to promote their songs and play a series of gigs. In 2009 they played SXSW. The band has also opened for No Age and Matt & Kim in São Paulo. All their songs are in English.

Holger Lyrics

Se impedir um desejo analise, analise
Correndo entre trilhas sem conhecimento
Dentro de mim construa as suas asas
E reproduzam-se, reproduzam-se
Acredito no (?) completo
E algum contra (?) quinas da noite
Querendo noite e dia
Querendo noite e dia
Querendo noite e dia
Como uma casa, como um monolito
Desse monumento foi o meu abrigo
Não sabia que tinha um desejo
Tinha uma floresta da noite
Querendo noite e dia
Querendo noite e dia
Querendo noite e dia
Querendo noite e dia
Querendo noite e dia
Querendo noite e dia
Querendo noite e dia
Querendo noite e dia
Suma mururu gabia
Suma mururu gabia
Suma mururu gabia
Suma mururu gabia
The lyrics to Holger's song "Monolito" are not entirely clear in meaning, but appear to contain a mix of surrealist imagery and introspective feelings. The first two lines, "Sua casa cair eu não vejo focalize, focalize / Se impedir um desejo analise, analise" can be interpreted as a call to focus on one's desires and not be distracted by external factors such as a falling home. The lines "Dentro de mim construa as suas asas / E reproduzam-se, reproduzam-se" suggest a desire to nurture creativity and explore inner depths.
The repeated refrain "Querendo noite e dia" (wanting night and day) adds to the dreamy and introspective mood of the song. The lines "Como uma casa, como um monolito / Desse monumento foi o meu abrigo" evoke the image of a protective structure or shelter that the singer may have relied on in times of need. The closing lines "Suma mururu gabia" are not easily decipherable, but add to the enigmatic and mysterious atmosphere of the song.

This monument was my shelter

I had a forest of the night
