Heart Melter

Hey Elbow  
Ellen Petterson (horns, electronics) 
Julia Ringdahl (vocals, guitar) 
Liam Amner (drums) 

Hey Elbow formed in 2013, and the debut single Blanca quickly made an impression and created waves in music media and on the net. The attention paved the way for gigs all over Scandinavia, London and Berlin, as well as opening for among others Wildbirds & Peacedrums, Cayucas and Color War.  

There music is another creature that strives to be free, and therefore Hey Elbow like to skip the usual genre descriptions and musical references when it comes to their creation.

The band took its name from an aerobics warm-up exercise they were taught while standing in the audience waiting for a show by The Knife. With their background in jazz and musical education, combined with an interest in noise, improvisation and freedom, they make odd and haunting pop music with a unique and personal expression. None and all of the three members are fronting the band, a democratic philosophy that gives the flugelhorn as much space as the singing, the electronics and the drums.

 "In our music the sound is at least as important as the actual compositions. We like to add little details to the mix, and they don't have to be notes, they can be just noises or hiss. They add just as much to the music as tonal things."  

They describe a liberating feeling when they started playing together, like finding something that had been waiting to take form. Their creative process is more intuitive than analytical and they don't limit themselves with thought-out stylistic moves.  

"Most of our inspiration is probably unconscious. We don't talk a lot before we write a song about how we want it to turn out, we try to just let everything happen. We have never talked about in what direction Hey Elbow should move or how we want to sound."

Atmosphere and weight, emotional charge, beautiful melodies and and a minimal restraint in combination with a joyful experimentation production-wise, are all contributing components which make it hard to forget Hey Elbow once you've heard them. Name-dropping comparisons feels superfluous, the music is powerful enough on it's own. 

The debut album was recorded in nine days, together with producer Joakim Lindberg in Studio Möllan in Malmö, Sweden.

like golden syrup glistening
Sugar-dusted pink twist
where thirsty birds go to drink.

Två människor på jorden

Lisa Alma's new single "Fine" is taken from her soon to be released album "sweater" out on April 21st.

"one of the most exciting new artists around" 
- Record Rewind Play (UK)

“This producer sticks out. Her downcast electronic soul has a pop edge but hidden depths, with the soft, lilting arrangements matched against her imposing, emotive voice. Lisa Alma's powerful songwriting seems to dwell on shadow, allusion.” - Clash Music (UK)

"Fine is a featherlight pop song without being cheesy - which is something only the grand ones manage to achieve. Grand bliss." - Poule d’Or (FRA)

“She is the heir to the subtle smooth grooves of Sade but her music can dovetail with Cat Power’s swooning romance: playful, willingly amicable and somehow more optimistic."
- GHOST FM (SWE)

"A full sensory experience" 
- Wonderland Magazine (UK)

"Flawlessly enticing and smooth pop gem" 
- FAMEmagazine  (UK)

"Tempting and lustful. Jessie Ware meets The XX" 
- Indie Hoy (ARG)

"Classy, intimate, contemplative, air-tight" 
- Going Solo (ITA)

"Das Meer macht Musik" 
- Spex - Magazin für Popkultur (GER)

Little Friend

Badlands

what have I done
mistakes that we become
looking for love where love is gone
find out what it means to face the world alone
hope is drying out
fill my head with doubt
am I lost or am I found
a shiver in my bones
still we carry on
blinded by the night 
we chase the rising sun

don't lose your heart in the badlands
you won't find a friend in the dust
don't let your dreams ever die
look for a light in the darkness
drink the wine but it tastes like blood
don't lose yourself to the madness

I can feel a driving force
drawn to stay the course
my body aches to be reborn
tempted by these ghosts before the race is won
we're somewhere in between the wire and the gun

don't lose your heart in the badlands
you won't find a friend in the dust
don't let your dreams ever die
look for a light in the darkness
drink the wine but it tastes like blood
don't lose yourself to the madness
