Efterklang on the telly – this sunday!

Saturday, September 13th, 2008

this will be a quick announcement to the people living in Sweden and others who can watch SVT2 on their tellies!

This Sunday, September 14th SVT2 will broadcast a full hour dedicated to Efterklang between 7pm and 8 pm. They filmed us when we played live in Lund, Sweden last spring and I think the program will include some interviews or footage of us fooling around as well.

We would like to thank Mikael and the SVT2 team for being so super cool!
And we look forward to watch the program as well!

take care and enjoy the rest of your weekend

5 year anniversary as a live band! Today!!! free Mp3 gift!

Thursday, March 6th, 2008

March 6th 2003 we played our very first concert as Efterklang. It was in Copenhagen at Huset I Magstræde and in order to get the job we had to rent the venue and organize and promote the gig ourselves. To make it a special night we invited a 36 piece brass band (which Thomas used to play in) to share the bill with us – it was a great evening indeed!
First Efterklang concert March 6th 2003
Thomas´father took this photo of the concert – we look so different!!

Today will be also be a special day for Efterklang. We are playing in Sønderborg in the southern part of Denmark. This is where Mads, Casper and me (Rasmus) grew up and where we our parents still live – we look forward to play for them and hopefully a lot of their grey haired friends so we can celebrate with style! It will be our debut in Sønderborg!

In order to mark this special day for us we are giving away a completely new song entitled Mirror Mirror. It is a live recording from the Nordklang festival in St. Gallen Switzerland – we played there February the 16th in a former erotic cinema!

DOWNLOAD for free – MIRROR MIRROR (live – 2008)

We are going to tour a lot until summer so please come and se us if you get the chance! The two next weeks bring Danish, Swedish and Norwegian concerts – then we go to UK, Ireland, France and Benelux – and then we go somewhere new!! soon to be announced. Most shows are listed here: Efterklang concerts

Efterklang

Ps. We would also like to show you this youtube clip that someone has uploaded from our concert in Vienna on February the 4th. We are playing Caravan – it was a night to remember!

Tak to all the nice people at our sold-out hometown show yesterday in Copenhagen. We had so much fun and it was the nicest feeling to play in Copenhagen again after almost two years break!

There is already a new Copenhagen concert lined up. This time in Store Vega where we will do a double concert with Lise Westzynthius March 12th. Tickets are for sale here at Billetlugen.

Ingmar Bergman R.I.P

Tuesday, August 7th, 2007

Ingmar Bergman
It is about a week ago now, when Ingmar Bergman passed away on the small island Farö, in his native country Sweden. To watch and feel Bergman´s work means a lot to me, and I felt touched to hear these sad sad news…
These are a couple of recommendations for all of you not familiar with his work:
Persona (watch the intro sequence below), Fanny & Alexander og Wild Strawberries

Home from Roskilde!

Tuesday, July 10th, 2007

what a superb festival!
Bjørk! Arcade Fire! Akron/Family! Turboweekend! Analogik!

and we have to mention all the bands we were involved in as well! Because they did a fantastic job all of them! Tenniscoats / Slaraffenland / Maher Shalal Hash Baz / Grizzly Bear / Taxi Taxi! / Kama Aina / Nika Soup & Saya Source and not to forget Nikaido Kazumi having never seen her perform before this was possible the biggest experiece of the festival! All of these names were presented on the festival through us and 4 of them are on our label Rumraket.

also I will never forget the 100% spontaneous concert Nika Soup & Saya Source played in the Lounge scene during the powercut! Kama Aina, Bill Wells and Ueno from Tenniscoats were the backing band and it was just magical! if anyone have pictures please send them!!

a superb festival indeed!

here is a picture of the original score for “Danske” (danish) – one of Tori Kudo´s latest compositions. He wrote it after he visited the Danish National Museum. Seing Maher Shalal Hash Baz premiere this song in Malmø yesterday at the Full Pull preview and afterwards receiving the score from Tori as a gift was a nice wrap of an incredible week!
