We’ve had the most incredible tour debut around China, and the last concert, Saturday, at Yugongyishan in Beijing was such a nice way to end it all.
Thanks a lot to all of you sweet people that turned up at the concerts, and made us feel more welcome than we could ever have dreamt of! Can’t wait till next time…

Much love from all of us
Casper

ps. please bear with our slightly drunken attitude. Booze and touring make (some) people talk:)

the lovely audience in San Francisco

we are halfway through the Danish Dynamit tour and we are loving it! So far we have played 12 of 24 shows. we started in Denver and then we went to Salt Lake City and then to Portland where from we drove down the coast while stopping several times to play memorable shows. We are now in the midst of crossing the country and today you can find us in Austin, Texas.

The temperature and climate here can best be described as walking around in one big hairdryer turned to full power. We have started to appreciate Air-condition and sunblock a lot!

the Phoenix BBQ and pool party
A few days ago we played in Phoenix where my cousin Chris lives. He invited us all for BBQ and pool party and we had so much fun. Desert living rocks!

We have 12 more shows to go! we look forward to all of them!!!

see ya!
Rasmus & Efterklang

Finally, we can confirm the very first US Tour in Efterklang history! We’ve worked and hoped for this to happen for a very long time, and now it’s time!
