Seewolf's cinematic indie rock is a big and beautiful hymn to the Frisian landscape. The moving result of the wild interaction between the inner and outer world. The eternal wind, the water pounding on the coast, the mighty dikes, the lighthouse shining over the vast land and time moving just a little slower there. The debut album 'A Bounce Of Grace' oozes that same openness, on which four inspired musicians push each other in the spirit of bands like Motorpsycho, The Veils and The Doors. Songs that stand firmly with their feet in the Frisian clay. The same clay that sticks to the band members' shoes and that they take everywhere with them in their old van, in which they drive to new horizons.
The band is always on its way to new adventures, previously during Popronde, at Eurosonic or as a support act for Still Corners and New Model Army. But it all starts on the outskirts of the Netherlands, where the group retreats from the busy society and forgets time for a moment, as they slowly disappear into their music. Along with their fifth band member, an old tape machine from San Francisco's Wally Heider Recording Studio, with which icons such as Tom Waits, Van Morrison and Neil Young recorded. Tuning, repairing and reviving this machine is an indispensable part of the ongoing search for why that music of the sixties and seventies sounds so timeless. Their love and passion for this recording technique can be heard on Seewolf’s characteristic debut album. On which that cold northern wind finally resonates with the warm sound of an analog tape sound.
