Album Description

Hi there! William Soovik here! Hope this finds you well! The last time I reached out like this was when we released our second album Major, about a year ago. I’m reaching out again because we are releasing a live album, on May 15th! Good times!! This recording consists of songs from both our first and second album. It was recorded by the Swedish national radio, on the last night of our year-long run as the once-a-month house band, in the cellar of a local watering whole. The concert was broadcast, in its entirety, during the summer of 2020. We allowed ourselves to cherry-pick some tunes for the album, but most of the concert is on there. The energy is high and the vibe is unprestigious. The music takes off in all kinds of directions but is at the same time somewhat unified. It’s definitely more “free-jazzy” then the earlier studio albums, but that feels totally right! Fun fact (or rather a boring fact) is that this was our last real live show before everything shut down. We really didn’t imagine that when the last bar of the night came to an end. We’ve now pushed our booked concerts in front of us for the past year. We really hope that we’ll be able to perform later this fall.
