The band explains via MySpace bulletin: *We are proud to inform you guys that we have hooked up with Teater GROB - a Copenhagen based theater which sets up very nice plays on various stages! We will score the two plays they are setting up this fall. First one is "En Plads I Mit Hjerte" (A Place In My Heart) which premieres August 23rd at Kaleidoskop in Copenhagen. The second play is "Som Hos Dig Star". This one premieres November 17 2008 at PLEX (one of our favorite places in Copenhagen).* MP3 below.

Efterklang @ Knitting Factory: Blowing Lungs Like Bubbles

It was roughly two years ago when I first discovered the brilliance that is Copenhagen's post pop collective, Efterklang. The 8 member band incorporates elements of jazz, electro experimentalism, folk, prog & krautrock into one otherworldly amalgamation. Last night marked the band's first ever visit to New York City and it was a glorious one. For nearly 75 minutes, Efterklang enthusiastically pranced around all of their releases to date creating a mystical wall of sound. To close out the evening, C. Taylor (Grizzly Bear) plus various members of Slaraffenland joined forces with Efterklang for an extended celebratory denouement. A monumental gig from start to finish! I kindly demand your attendance at one of their few remaining North American gigs. They may not return for some time.

Visit Efterklang at their official MySpace page. A handful of photos & an MP3 follow.

Efterklang Wins 2 Danish Grammys

The band explains via MySpace: *We had a splendid evening yesterday! After a 20 hour drive from Agen in south France, we just exactly made it to the Danish Music Award show in Tivoli, Copenhagen. And not only did we make it to the show, we actually made it all the way up to the podium, which we've never tried before (last time our parents stepped in for us), what a treat and glamorous moment! With us home, we brought 2 statues in the categories "best electronica album" and "best artwork" - fantastic!!!*
