IMMANU EL (2004) is a Swedish band with a sound of dynamic guitar and keyboard soundscapes, captive singing and with somewhat of a moving Nordic presence. The music is focused at varying dynamics and a wide spectrum of harmonic expressions and sounds that can move between presence and ambience. Originally the band was inspired by early post-rock and experimental music combined with pop and indie-rock influences. The ambition has ever since the start in their mid teens been to create something captivating, beautiful and sublime - but the ways of achieving this have always been evolving differently. With 2 albums and more than 150 concerts in 25 countries for the last three years, the band has gained a growing reputation to be one of the most promising bands from Scandinavia today.

IMMANU EL’s third album will be released in the fall of 2011.
