So Cow

So Cow is the delightfully quirky indie rock project of Irish musician Brian Kelly, who’s been crafting lo-fi pop-punk gems since the mid-2000s. Originally a solo bedroom-recording venture, Kelly’s project evolved into a full band setup, blending jangly guitars, witty lyrics, and infectious melodies that feel like a cross between Guided by Voices and early Weezer. Based in Galway but with a stint in South Korea influencing his early work, Kelly’s DIY ethos and playful experimentation shine through albums like *Lisa Marie Airplane Tour* (2017) and *Meaningless Friendly* (2020), both of which showcase his knack for turning everyday observations into oddly profound earworms. Recent releases like *Rebel Bishop* (2022) and *Affected Services* (2023) continue his streak of scrappy, charming tunes that feel like secret handshakes for indie rock loyalists. Whether solo or with a rotating cast of collaborators, So Cow remains a cult favorite for fans of clever, off-kilter guitar pop.
