Sonic Moon:
Influenced by genres like stoner, psychedelic and noise rock, Sonic Moon presents the listener to a personal approach to the genre, combining the individual band members musical preferences and embraces a dark and melodic sound throughout the release.
Sonic Moon was formed in 2016 by Emil Damgaard Andersen, Emil Klinkby and Jeppe Rasmussen in the ashes of their former band. Accompanied by Magnus Klostergaard and Oliver Lyngkilde Sonic Moon rehearsed over the winter in a cold decrepit house in a suburb of Aarhus, where their first songs were written. During the summer of 2017 the band recorded the first single “Lost Faces”, which was acclaimed and became demo of the month in the danish music magazine Gaffa.
In the fall Emil and Jeppe met Denni Ian at Aarhus University where they found out that they had the same musical preferences and ambitions, which lead to him becoming the bands new bass player. Shortly after the new line-up recorded the dark acoustic song “Among Sheep” in collaboration with producer Jonas Sharpe (White Dominos). In the spring of 2018 the band went to the studio again, this time with Jacob Bredahl (Møl, Livløs) to record their debut EP “In Orbit” which was released on october 3rd 2018. At the same time the band was part of the artist development concept “Rock the Region” which toured eastern Jutland, including a showcase concert at SPOT Festival 2018.
After their spring tour Sonic Moon took a break from live shows to write new material for a follow up EP release. The EP was recorded at their rehearsal space in the spring of 2019 with Frederik Toftgaard (Lumine).
Hollow Birds:
Hollow Birds spiller mørk, melankolsk rock med et filmisk og atmosfærisk lydunivers, der spænder mellem støjende udbrud og drømmende melankoli.
Inspireret af den mørke, skandinaviske natur og de indre kampe i os selv, debuterer bandet med en EP om selvbedrag og forgængelighed. Pladen, der udkommer den 17. januar 2020 til både stream og vinyl, forsøger at beskrive øjeblikkene før den store undergang, der varsler en håbløshed men også en forløsning i det uvisse.
Dette opleves også i deres liveshows, der præges af en knugende uro, dragende melodier og en forløsende storladenhed som hypnotisk inviterer ind i bandets univers. Hollow Birds har tidligere optrådt på SPOT Festival, hvor Jonas Strandholdt Bach fra GFR bl.a skrev: ”Jeg bed især mærke i andet nummer, der swingede ret godt, på sådan en stoner-rocket måde. Især her havde bandet fat i noget rigtig godt. På fire numre når man knap at komme i gang, men Hollow Birds fik faktisk vist at de kan lidt af hvert i de knap 20 minutters spilletid man får i Remisen.” Devilution’s Svend Lokjær fortsætter; ”Herefter nåede jeg lige et par numre med midtjyske Hollow Birds. Et spændende, melankolsk rocket band, der hist og her lød lidt a la Alice in Chains og Kellermensch”
