Today Efterklang return with their first new music since 2021, kicking off their next sonic chapter with “Getting Reminders”, a new single featuring Beirut’s Zach Condon on trumpet. The track is released alongside a new documentary 'Efterklang: The Makedonium Band' and the announcement of an extensive European tour that will be celebrating forthcoming new music, as well as the band's 20th anniversary.

"Getting Reminders" unfolds as as an intimate piece, with Casper Clausen's vocals and acoustic guitar taking the lead. It’s an exciting new sound for the ever-evolving band. Zach Condon’s trumpet beautifully contributes to the warm and captivating sonic tapestry.

"To me, ‘Getting Reminders’ is a flash of light, a domino effect of feelings from a simple reminder, like a photo, a word, or when we encounter love, that suddenly sets our minds free" explains Casper. "In reality, I feel a dark and highly politicised force tearing us apart, across land and culture. I feel like reminding myself that there’s a landscape that lives beyond and between us all, where we are free to cross and meet one another.”
The accompanying video creatively brings still photos from North Macedonia to life and was directed by Søren Lynggaard and Efterklang’s Casper Clausen.
“Getting Reminders” official video:

The single "Getting Reminders" coincides with new documentary by award-winning director Andreas Johnsen which follows the band as they spend a week in North Macedonia, assembling a group of local musicians to create a performance in front of the architecturally notable independence monument, Makedonium. A charming tour of the Macedonian music world and a fascinating insight into the creative process of the ever-exploring band, 'Efterklang: The Makedonium Band’ is currently having its world premiere screenings at the prestigious CPH:DOX film festival in Copenhagen, and will continue to be shown at film festivals across the world throughout this year.
Watch the trailer for 'Efterklang: The Makedonium Band':
documentary features a prominent role for "Getting Reminders”. In a poignant and memorable scene the song is performed live for a very attentive security guard in a shopping centre and, later on, also for the President of North Macedonia. Casper explains: We took Getting Reminders with us on our trip to North Macedonia for the Makedonium Band, where the song really started shaping itself, finding resonance, it became a sort of mysterious communication tool. We would play it to many people there, from shy teens to a confident president and perform it together with local musicians in front of their freedom monument; Makedonium.
Since 2003, Efterklang have released a long list of acclaimed albums and toured internationally with their inclusive and experimental music, which innovatively blends elements of pop, indie-rock, post-rock, and electronic music. The group, consisting of Mads Brauer, Casper Clausen and Rasmus Stolberg, has previously released the documentaries 'An Island' in collaboration with director Vincent Moon and 'The Ghost of Piramida' in collaboration with director Andreas Koefoed.

Fred Wallin, basist och producent i Little Dragon, kommer med sitt soloprojekt Funny Weather som
officiell supportakt för det hyllade danska bandet Efterklang. Turnén sveper över Östersjön, Finland,
Sverige och Norge, startar i december och sammanfaller med releasen av en ny singel från det
efterlängtade självbetitlade debutalbumet.
Efter att ha släppt sin debut-EP, Banner of a Lost Belief, med singeln One Day, är Wallin nu redo att återvända
med sitt självbetitlade album Funny Weather, som släpps tidigt 2024. Detta album dyker djupare in i hans
personliga låtskrivande och kombinerar signatur produktioner med influenser från elektroniska, soul- och
folkmusik traditioner världen över.
Albumet innehåller spännande samarbeten, inklusive den Chicago-baserade stigande stjärnan Evann McIntosh
och tunga musiker från Leon Bridges band. Fans av Little Dragon kommer att känna igen sig och uppskatta
bidrag från Wallins bandkamrater, som medverkar på olika sätt genom skivan.
Skivan är mixad av Joe Harling ( Tears for Fears, etc) Mastrad av Heba Kadry (Björk, Bon Iver, Big thief)
Med detta självbetitlade album fortsätter Wallin att tänja på kreativa gränser samtidigt som han håller fast vid den
suggestiva lyrik som präglar Funny Weather. Det är en oförutsägbar blandning av en personlig berättelse och
genre lös experiment, som fångar Wallins röst som en artist under utveckling.
