OLIMPIAS ORKAN
Olimpias Orkan was formed out of the will to break free from genres and boxes and challenge those trough composition, improvisation and interplay. The music contains both the beautiful and the ugly, the simple and the complex, the raw and the soft and catches ears and hearts of listeners with it's unique sound and honest lyrics. Olimpias Orkan draws inspiration from different genres such as American contemporary jazz (e.g. Briand Blade & The Fellowship band), Swedish modern jazz (e.g. Klabbes Bank, Isabell Sörling Farvel), pop and folk music.

Indie rock with strong singer-songwriter roots, colored by grunge, jazz and improvisational music.

In NANGA electronic and acoustic elements meet, building dynamic soundscapes lead by vocals and lyrics where vulnerability is strength. Influences come from many directions, creating a web of genres that some have called artpop, others singer/songwriter, other r&b/soul with electronic metal-vibes. All are right.
