Elifantree

Helsinki

Elifantree (Fin/Swe) “The experience is almost gestalt in its extremes of both power and delicacy, something of an aural hallucination.” Helsinki based Elifantree delivers an experimental musical trip on the border between pop and improvised music. They make songs with a razor sharp blend of social criticism, surrealism and unique sounds dipping into ambient and rock textures that creates a sound much larger and wider than the sum of their parts. Elifantree has performed widely in Europe and beyond during the last few years and has gained a strong reputation as an energetic, unrestrained and constantly surprising live act that has been compared to works of artists like David Lynch, Charlie Chaplin and Pablo Picasso. They have released three critically acclaimed albums, Love & Trees (2010), Time Out (2012) and Movers and Shakers (2015) on the label Eclipse Music. Forthcoming album out in March 2018. Anni Elif Egecioglu - voc, synth, piano & more. Pauli Lyytinen - sax, ewi, effects & more. Olavi Louhivuori - drums
