Johannes Geworkian Hellman: hurdy-gurdy, electronics
LarsEmil Öjeberget: accordion, stompboxes, electronics
”Hurdy-gurdy and accordion have always been a popular combination, but what Johannes Geworkian Hellman and Lars Emil Öjeberget deliver on their third album takes these instruments to a new level. Their compositions are elegiac, dreamy, wallowing in great imaginative, cinematic melodies, then mesmerizing again and the next moment pulsating, exciting and emotionally touching. They create a sound cosmos in which the two musicians form a truly symbiotic unit and become soul mates” - FOLKER music magazine (DE)
