Intro

VALKA was formed in 2011 and consists of band members Brandon Gendvilas and Robb Gilligan. Their music features a dynamic range of folk-pop melodies laid on a backdrop of sweeping orchestral and electronic soundscapes. The band was initially an unlikely match as each member had very stark differences in what they brought to the table.
 
Brandon, born and raised in Portland, OR, studied classical piano from an early age. He later branched out into being a singer-songwriter, finding a passion for crafting lyrics and melodies. Collaborating with many Portland based musicians he fell in love with the art until, at age 19, Brandon moved to LA to pursue a dream in songwriting & performing. Born into a musical family in New Jersey, Robb moved to Phoenix, AZ when he was 13 and quickly became part of the punk rock music scene. After playing in several bands he moved to LA in pursuit of songwriting & audio engineering. He worked for many years as a music & sound editor at a prominent feature film trailer house where he was exposed to the epic scale of theatrical music orchestrations before breaking off and starting his own company.
 
The duo first collaborated in 2010 during the recording sessions of Brandon's solo EP, where Brandon had hired Robb to produce the EP. After their experience of working together in the studio they knew something special was happening musically. As time went on, Brandon brought his poetic lyrics, folk influences, and grand vision while Robb brought his ear for cinematic productions, virtual instruments, and the energy of rock; together forming the unique sound that is now VALKA.
 
And now after several years spent in the studio self-producing their recordings, VALKA has released their debut LP album May 19th, 2015.
