Biografie

Esben and the Witch are a three piece indie rock band from Brighton, England. After a self-released EP 33 in 2009 and a limited 7-inch single „Lucia, at the Precipice“ in February 2010, the band signed with Matador Records. The band’s debut single for the label, „Marching Song“, was released on 11 October 2010, with their debut album Violet Cries was released on January 31 2011.

History:

Since forming in Brighton in 2008, Esben and the Witch have had just a few releases behind them including „Lucia, at the Precipice“. They have had positive press support from NME, Pitchfork Media and The Guardian, plus experience of concerts alongside The xx, Wild Beasts, Foals, and The Big Pink.

In May 2010 the band contributed to the London edition of The Creators Project, warping one of 33’s tracks, „Corridors“, into an eighteen-minute soundscape to soundtrack artist Karl Sadler’s lit forest installation.

On October 19th 2010 it was revealed that the band were nominated for a Q Award as „next big thing“, the award eventually being won by Clare Maguire on October 25. The following day Matador Records announced the band’s debut album Violet Cries is to be released in January/February 2011.

On 6 December 2010, the BBC announced that the band had been nominated for the BBC’s Sound of 2011 poll.
