About Me


NIGHT ON EARTH is a group that emerged from an improvisation that was performed live by Paracrousis, a devoted post-music sound-terrorist collective.
Their musical style can be portrayed as a puzzle of trip hop and blues noir, tuned in a jazzy mood, under an improvising spirit; entering trippy and moody soundscapes that echo cinematic references.
Their sound is more influenced by the images of Jim Jarmusch and Wong Kar Wai than a specific musical movement. Their live shows are occasionally accompanied by visuals, short films and performance.
Night On Earth is a group consisted by eight musicians of diverse musical backrounds and influences. Apart from their full-band performances, they also perform with another two projects. Under the name -Night On Earth 'In a silent way'- they play as an acoustic trio and as -Night On Earth ‘impro’- members of the band improvise alongside with guest musicians.
In November of 2006 their debut self-titled double album was released under the independent greek label 'Outlandish Recordings'. Three tracks of the album have also contributed to the soundtrack of 'Roz' (Pink), a film by Alexandros Voulgaris, and 'Kleftes' (Thiefs), a film by Makis Papadimitratos. At the time, they are recording their second album in collaboration with Thanassis Papakonstantinou and the film score for Thanassis Totsikas & Giorgos Pantazopoulos' short film, titled 'Hoy No Vengo A Cenar'.
