Today, Efterklang release Lyse
Lyset was recorded in Copenhagen on 16th September 2019 and its title track (meaning ‘The Light’) is a new song co-written with Swedish artist sir Was. The rest of the EP consists of reworked Altid Sammen tracks, including the single ‘Vi er uendelig’. Lyset features contributions from the South Denmark Girls Choir (70-strong choir based in the trio’s home-town of Sønderborg who also featured on their previous album Piramida) and Efterklang live members Simon Toldam (piano) and Øyunn (drums and vocals).
“‘Lyset’ means the light, it’s an homage to the light where we all grow, the light that we keep reaching for over and over again. It’s the light that I forget sometimes, when I’m in the shadow for too long. The song is a reminder that it’s a place that exists, beyond the clouds, and it burns but it’s full of life.” – Casper Clausen, Efterklang.
