About Me

Os elfland surgiram em 2003 na região de Espinho/Porto. Após um longo processo de composição e de varias alterações na sua formação, surgem em 2006 para divulgar o seu trabalho. Para o efeito contam com um EP (não editado) composto por quatro temas - Moil; My Contradictions; Put On The Lights; Im Still Calling You - cujos temas "Moil" e "Put On The Lights" chegaram a rodar em algumas rádios nacionais. Este EP vem servir de cartão de visita, mas representa apenas uma pequena amostra do vasto e ecléctico reportório que a banda tem vindo a desenvolver ao longo destes três anos. As suas influencias musicais vão desde o rock ao jazz, passando pela música alternativa, étnica, psicadélica, entre muitos outros estilos e ambientes.De momento a banda encontra-se em estúdio para a gravação de novos temas que em breve serão aqui disponibilizados para audição.:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :::::::::::::elfland appeared in 2003 in Espinho/Oporto, Portugal. After a long composition process and several changes in the band's formation, they emerge in 2006 to reveal their work. They have a homonymous EP with four songs - Moil; My Contradictions; Put On The Lights; I'm Still Calling You - whose songs "Moil" and "Put On The Lights" played in portuguese radio stations. This EP is a kind of visiting-card, but just a little sample of the vast and eclectic repertory that the band developed during the last three years. They have musical influences from rock, jazz, swing, alternative, ethnic, psychadelic music and many other styles and atmospheres.

Sensibility. » A Trompa:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: « elfland's concert showed a pretty music that will reveal a serious case.
