Spend The Night

RA are Simon Minó, Erik Blondell, Felix Mårtensson and Martin Nilsson. They sound like they have plugged their instruments straight into a small boom box placed on a festival camping in the 80th. Sheets of noise propelled along by dark pounding bass, tribal drumming and guitars that aren’t afraid of feedback, all topped off with the doom-like vocals of prime-time Goth.

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.

Falling Through

I’ve still got my legs but I can’t go
I’ve still got my head but I don’t know 
All is there but all is there hollow
All is where my fears will not let go 

Hollow 
Is life a show
That no one cares and no one knows
Why we’re here, and where to go?
Before we know, it’s all hollow 

Hollow

I can see the lights but feel so cold
I have flown so high but feel so low 
The world is one big flow we must follow
Go along the flow and we’ll dissolve 
Go against the flow and we’ll dissolve 

Hollow 
Is life a show?
That no one cares and no one knows
Why we’re here, and where do we go?
Before we know, it’s all hollow

Falling Through
