Description
Ellas Kapell return with their fourth album, Ember, marking the next step in their musical journey - a bold, boundary-pushing continuation of their acclaimed interpretations of jazz standards. For the first time, the band has taken full charge of the recording and production process, giving them complete artistic control over every detail of their expression. The new album builds on the group's signature qualities - strong arrangements, heartfelt presence, and close, responsive interplay - but with a clear expansion of their sound. Electronic elements also take on a more prominent role, and from the very first note the entire soundscape steps into the spotlight. The music shifts between the intimate and the expansive, where acoustic and electronic textures meet to form a sound world that feels both natural and exploratory.With this release, Ellas Kapell open the door to a broader international audience. By using production as a creative tool rather than a mere framework, they claim full ownership of their artistic identity while shaping something that feels both familiar and entirely new. It's music that breathes sensitivity and integrity, takes up space, dares to take risks, and lingers with the listener.
