Psychedelic folk singer EMILE shares dreamy “Mountains of Cape Creus” video; new album out September 29th on Heavy Psych Sounds
Danish psych-folk songwriter EMILE (also frontman of The Sonic Dawn) release his new video “Mountains of Cape Creus”, taken from his upcoming sophomore album “Spirit” on Heavy Psych Sounds Records.
“Mountains of Cape Creus” is hazy collection of fragmented memories and dream sequences. Equal parts acid folk and modern classical guitar, the song presents something warm and familiar, but at the same time strange and distant. A surreal daydream on a hot summer day.

Danish-French singer and songwriter EMILE is also known for fronting Copenhagen acid rock band The Sonic Dawn. On his sophomore album “Spirit”, the radiant artist unfolds a new and exciting side of his songwriting: each song ebbs and flows effortlessly, always centered around his voice and masterful acoustic guitar playing, while being backed by a small ensemble of selected musicians (see full credits below). Ten tracks of a delicate and luminous voyage sprinkled with inspirations as wide as Indian raga or bossa nova, all reflecting an unpretentious cosmic consciousness and simply marveling at existence as it is. “Spirit is about connecting with our surroundings, with nature and the universe. There is beauty in transformation too“, he reminds us. This is a different album from a different singer-songwriter, both surrealistic and easy to understand, accomplished and untamed light and heavy — like the passing of time. ► Also listen to new singles “Circles” and “Nocturnal“.

Out September 29th on Heavy Psych Sounds
Shrouded in mystery, Emile creates an experimental and organic sound that is truly original. With his roots firmly planted in Copenhagen based The Sonic Dawn, the songwriter finds a new home for his more introspective compositions. The songs are based around vocals and acoustic instruments, often combined with immersive technicolor soundscapes. Drawing inspiration from late 60s counterculture and the surrealistic art movement, Emile’s music can be described as contemplative and highly lysergic.
