Efterklang - Reveal live shows for 2010
15 December 09
To coincide with the release of third album Magic Chairs, released on 22nd February via 4AD, Denmark quartet Efterklang have announced details of an early Spring tour that will span parts of North America, UK and Europe.
On the eve of the album's official release the band will appear at Oslo's By:Larm festival in February before heading across the Atlantic in March and then back to Europe the following month (one of the handful of UK shows includes headlining London's Shepherds Bush Empire on April 21st). As before, Efterklang will perform with their seven-piece live band including US troubadour Peter Broderick and his equally talented sister Heather Woods Broderick.
In January, before the band kick off their Magic Chairs Tour, 2010 will begin in earnest as Efterklang combine forces with friends Slaraffenland to perform as a 12-strong band under the moniker "Slaraffenklang" for two special Danish shows. The mutant band will perform new versions of tracks from both bands' repertoire on January 23rd and 24th in Aarhus and Copenhagen respectively.
