GUNDELACH SPACE ECHO

If you are a fan of Bon Iver, you are going to love Norwegian singer Gundelach. With the unveiling of his new single 'Space Echo', he shows himself to be every bit as sensitive as Justin Vernon, with a delicately yearning delivery that is just as emotionally harrowing. As he brings together beautifully trembling vocals and simple piano, moments of electronics melt through with sublime effect and hints of distortion add to the feeling of hearts breaking apart. The repeated words of “I saw the ashes of our love on the ground,” may be some of the most gut-wrenching lyrics we've heard for a while, only heightening both the sense of sadness and red-rawness. With a growing following in his native country, we look forward to him sweeping in from the North . - SJ
