About Me

Nalle have a new album "The Sirens Wave" out in March 2008 with Locust Music of Chicago. The debut album "By Chance Upon Waking" is still available (www.pickled-egg.co.uk). A collaboration with the One Ensemble is also in the process of being mixed by Hans Joachim Irmler of Faust and The Family Elan is busy working on a second album after the debut "Stare of Dawn" released last year. The band supports the deities of wild 'beasts' and stands firmly against the encroachment of golf courses upon our beautiful landscape (and other similar violations).You can listen the Nalle live at the VPRO Dwars festival, Amsterdam, by visiting the following link:http://www.vpro.nl/programma/dwars/artikelen/34267594/a nd in Paris at this link:http://www.radiowne.org/NalleThis is a video of nalle playing two songs from the new album, CCA, glasgow, end of 2007.
