Our 2023 in 12 Photos

In 2023 we celebrated our 20-year anniversary as a band and we were busy creating new music and performances!

We appreciate the year we’ve had and the many people who played a part in making it special. We wish everyone a Happy New Year and hope that 2024 will bring peace and joy.

We spent a lot of hours this year in the studio in Copenhagen - some hours were also spent at the nearby beach.

 

September - A film by Catarina Neves Ricci

Our friend and film director Catarina Neves Ricci managed to poetically and intimately capture our collaboration with South Denmark Girls’ Choir. The short film premiered in September. Watch it here.

2023 was another year filled with socks! This year 5 new designs were released by Efterklang’s Sock Society on Patreon. You can buy the anniversary sock (no membership needed) here and you can join the sock society here.

 

November - more sessions + the making of a documentary

We kept working in the studio and among many things had a lovely session with Christian Balvig at The Village Studio. Simultaneously Andreas Johnsen and the team around him worked hard on finishing the ‘Efterklang: The Makedonium Band’ documentary. Pictured below on the right is Diana Queirós who did the sound design and mix.
