Vola - Friend Of A Phantom EU Tour / Nottingham

Evocative, haunting, thoughtful. These are just some of the words I’ve seen used to describe the Danish quartet Vola. They are perfect descriptors of a band who have been slowly increasing their presence. Just look at the increase in size of venues for their forthcoming Autumn tour of the UK, and you will see how they are mushrooming.

It has been three years since the release of VOLA’s defining album, Witness. They’ve since wrapped up two tours of the US with several venues upgraded due to overwhelming demand, as well as sold-out shows in New York, L.A. and Chicago.

Their first tour of Canada resulted in sold-out shows in Toronto and Montreal, and they rounded off the continent with triumphant South American shows in Mexico, Brazil, and a sold-out show in Chile. The Danish-Swedish quartet – Asger Mygind (vocals/guitar), Martin Werner (keys), Nicolai Mogensen (bass), and Adam Janzi (drums) – are now to set free their fourth studio album.

Their strength has always been combining a multitude of ideas within a single song, packing it in with a grandiose power that can be as ferocious as it can be delicate.
