After releasing the stand-alone single ‘Getting Reminders‘ featuring Beirut’s Zach Condon on trumpet, Efdeterkland has announced their new album, ‘Things We Have In Common’, which is due for release on September 27th via City Slang. The album will be accompanied by live dates, including a show at London’s Barbican on October 5th.
Along with the announcement, the band have also shared the single, ‘Plant, ‘ which features Mabe Fratti on cello and vocals and is accompanied by a video directed and created by Søren Lynggaard and Niels Buhl Hendriksen. A video that takes the creative play with still and live photos seen in the ‘Getting Reminders’ video to a whole new level.
Vocalist Casper Clausen explains that ‘Plant’ is “a song dedicated to the act of reaching out, beyond ourselves, daring to go beyond our inner world and share ourselves with others, putting our vulnerability on display, like a plant reaching for the light. This is one of the first songs we wrote for the new album, and it’s been a long journey, starting from a sketch by our longtime friend, collaborator, and co-founder of Efterklang, pianist Rune Mølgaard.”
Collaborator Mabe Fratti says recording ‘Plant’ with Efterklang “was extremely joyful as I remember witnessing the song developing when I went with Efterklang to Sommertræf two years ago. It’s a breeze, this song. I felt that Casper’s tone and mine are super friendly with each other!”
A synthy dream-filled slice of gorgeous with a solid backbone thats gently works it way under your skin right to your heart.
