THE VIOLET HOUR is a musical foursome from Copenhagen, Denmark. The members have been playing in various rock bands for half a decade, but in the fall of 2000 the four friends decided to team up and explore the realms of lo-fi folk rock.
Daniel Rastén writes the lyrics, sings and plays guitar. The others play bass, drums, guitars, melodica, banjo, saw and piano, they also do background vocals, the line-up varies with the expression of the music.
Despite the many different instruments used the musical expression always remains minimalistic, uniting lo-fi and folkrock. Although the sources of inspiration are many, with life itself being the main influence, names such as Karate, Leonard Cohen, Neil Young and Codeine could be worth mentioning. At least to get your attention! Remember - Don’t just listen with your ears...
The Violet Hour is: Daniel Rastén, Simon Rastén, Jonas Jensen and Jan ’Damage’ Petersen.
