INDIANS
Indians, the musical alter ego of Copenhagen resident Søren Løkke Juul, have signed to 4AD worldwide. While Indians only played their first concert in their hometown in February 2012 and self-released their debut single in April, they've already garnered enough attention to perform shows across Europe and in North America, playing shows with the likes of Beirut, Bear In Heaven, Lower Dens, Weird Dreams and Retribution Gospel Choir over this Summer.
On the back of this early momentum, Indians today mark their signing to 4AD with their installment in the 4AD Session series. Filmed over the course of one day on Osea Island a little-known, privately owned island in the estuary of the Blackwater in Essex the starting point for the performance was embracing the challenge of playing, recording and filming outside, placing the music into a vast open space, under sky and near water.
With the intention to capture the sense of air and atmosphere in the music, each track was recorded in a different location, moving the band and cameras in order to introduce a new element that reflected the change in song. This was further complimented by the shift in light: the session begins with 'I Am Haunted' filmed just after high tide in the early afternoon, is then followed 'Magic Kids' just as the sun had set, and ends with 'New' filmed after dark in the small hours of the morning. While still flecked with the surreal ambience of Søren's air-tight compositions, the full-band performance adds a foreboding sense of wonder that provides a fitting introduction into Indians' very own natural world.

CEDARWELL
A man and his dog. They go for a hike. Holy Smokes! It's a bear!!!!
Cedarwell's Erik Neave well embodies his northern heritage. Sheboygan, Wisconsin, should be proud of such a wonderfully full beard, such tough flannel shirts and darkly twisted, acoustic-pop songs that seem to ride nature's very rhythm. Crisp clarity and addicting genuineness hibernate Neave's voice somewhere in the back of your memory, somewhere where it can stay for a long, long time, constantly reminding you that this is Wisconsin, and winter never really ends.
