Erik Wollo's dynamic sonic expeditions are well-conceived and
melody driven. Lofty guitar themes intermingle easily with regal
synth lines, cleverly crafted so as to be nearly indistinguishable.
Elegant melodies wander through his soundscapes and gentle
beats take the listener from states of dreamlike stillness, to
frozen brilliance, to warm enchantment. There is a majestic
quality to his work - a harmony within its spirituality, development
and design. Whether depicting the bareness of a vast tundral
landscape or the complexity of an individual snowflake - Erik
Wollo offers incredible insight into the world through the infinite
perspectives of music.
Norwegian multi-instrumentalist Erik Wollo returns to
Philadelphia as part of The Gatherings Concert Series on
Saturday 27 October 2007 at St. Mary's Hamilton Village, 3916
Locust Walk. After this event, Erik Wollo will perform a live
in-studio radio concert on the 10.28.07 broadcast of STAR'S
END. Tune in for details.
