Melancholic indie pop with a lot of love and a hint of the devil within, describes the songs on the EP. With one foot in the singer-songwriter genre, the other one in rock / British invasion, while his toes play around with knobs and effect pedals. In the centre of it all lays the most powerful instrument; his Tim Buckley resembling vocal, with vibrato and a nerve that gets your attention, stirs up your feelings, and can suddenly turn into a powerful voice with attitude and frustration. The man behind “Eltervaag” is Trond Eltervaag Hansen. In addition to writing, performing and producing music, he runs the Martinique pub/venue in his hometown Stavanger, Norway. Trond has always been surrounded by music. As a kid, his father played guitar with his mother backing him up with beautiful vocal harmonies.... If anyone by accident tried to criticize Hank Williams or The Rolling Stones, you´d get the look saying; Hey, we don´t want that kind of language in our house. After he as a six-year old decorated his father´s Höfner ´62 with a permanent marker, it was time to give the boy his own instrument, an acoustic guitar. The story above summarizes Trond´s musical upbringing; good records, acoustic guitars, vocal harmonies, the frailty of country music, the energy of The Rolling Stones and the desire to play it loud. When Trond got his first allowance, he started to buy his own records from the likes of Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Nina Simone, David Bowie, Tom Waits, Radiohead, Belle and Sebastian, Portishead, Joni Mitchell and the band that really taught him how to play rock guitar, Rage Against The Machine.
