Angelica’s Elegy plays melancholic indie pop inspired by Beach House, Deerhunter, Yo La Tengo og Madlib. The band was started by Simen and Erik at Trøndertun Folk high school. They have cooperated with people from Dråpe and Bendik (who’ll appear on this blog on tuesday).
Our favourite place is more of an area of the city we live in, than a specific smaller location. The place is called Bakklandet, and is an old part of the city laying next to the Nidaros river. This place is all “brick road, old tree houses, old shops and bridges”, with several cozy pubs and coffee shops. Also, the fact that Simen and Karl’s Greener Productions is located in a studio called Trondheim Studio at Bakklandet makes this place very relevant when we reminisce over “what made all of this the way it is?”, “how did Angelica’s Elegy come to this point?”
Angelica’s Elegy is playing at Slottsfjell festival in Tønsberg this summer!
