Efterklang unveil album preview, "To A New Day"
Efterklang have shared "To A New Day", as the fourth new single from their forthcoming album Things We Have In Common.
Efterklang introduced their latest sonic chapter with "Getting Reminders" – a stand-alone single featuring Beirut’s Zach Condon on trumpet. This was followed last month with "Plant" featuring Mabe Fratti on cello and vocals, and "Animated Heart" starring Sønderjysk Pigekor (South Denmark Girls' Choir).
Efterklang vocalist Casper Clausen comments: "Our first gathering creating ‘Things We Have In Common’ took place in a studio situated deep in the forests of Sealand's (Denmark) western region. We spent our days jamming on ideas and early song sketches, punctuated by long walks amidst the forest landscape. Each morning brought fresh inspiration, and "To a New Day" emerged as one of these spontaneous creations. There was a pulsating energy to it, a sense of upward momentum that resonated with us. Most of the vocal melodies were crafted that particular morning, with the lyrics and structure evolving gradually."
With their newest record, Efterklang close the circle that began with their 2019 album Altid Sammen and continued with 2021’s Windflowers. Pianist and composer Rune Mølgaard formed Efterklang with the three members but left after their 2007 sophomore record Parades.
Things We Have In Common, is set for release on 27 September via City Slang, and is available to pre-order now.
