Band - Halasan Bazar

Everyday, in a dim lit bunker deep down beneath the streets of Copenhagen, sit Halasan Bazar; a ramshackle lo-fi psych pop outfit with a hookup for 60´s harmonies, Tin Pan Alley pop riffs and existentialist lyrics, recording an endless stream of quirky psych-pop songs. The band is based around songwriter Fredrik Eckhoff´s singular vision to combine the resigned sadness and blue eyed wondering of the great folk-rock songwriters such as Gene Clark, John Phillips and Arthur Lee, with a naive, anything-goes spark of lo-fi, hook-based dreamy psychedelia. Fascinated with madness and failure, the band may be doomed from the get-go. But in failure and madness lies great beauty. And this band´s quest is to aim for the intensity of manic creative flow and frustration, and on-the-edge esthetics of the true tragedies and casualties of pop.
