Gundelach

Having gained recognition with the release of his debut EP as well as collaborations with artists such as Prins Thomas and most recently on ‘Games’ with fellow Norwegian ARY, 2018 is looking very promising for Gundelach, with the release of his debut full length BALTUS.

Baltus is short for Balthazar, as Kai explains “Baltus is the name of the record because when I was growing up we had this big crow in our garden. It was in a tree there for about 12 years, and we called that crow Baltus,” explains Gundelach. “I have a crow tattooed on my forearm; I really like crows! They’re a symbol for death and darkness in olden times and maybe more recently they’re a symbol for melancholy and loss.”

In Scandinavia, Gundelach has started to build a cult following off the back of his Norwegian Grammy nominated debut EP in 2016. Singles “Spider” and ”Fjernsynet" drew him critical acclaim and and heavy radio play leading to him playing some of the biggest clubs and festivals. His effortless falsetto and Nordic-noir analog-electronic production drove him from being an underground favorite to a DIY pop-star in Norway.
