Indians' Søren Løkke Juul

Indians Join WFUV And TAS At The 2012 CMJ Music Marathon

Copenhagen's Søren Løkke Juul, who goes by the moniker Indians, recently signed to 4AD after releasing a spate of well-received singles. His debut album, Somewhere Else, is due on January 29 (January 28 in the UK/EU) and you can listen to his solo appearance at WFUV and The Alternate Side's CMJ showcase, taped on October 16, when it airs on TAS on FUV tomorrow, October 19, from 10 p.m. to midnight. Or listen to the show in WFUV's archives here.

Juul's Tuesday night set at the Living Room, his first of only three CMJ shows, was a harbinger of very good things to come. He was a mesmerizing presence, accompanying himself — and his strong, clear voice — with keyboads, loops and acoustic guitar for introspectively-drawn, elegant songs like "I Am Haunted." There is a stately, dreamy pace to the songs from Somewhere Else — an apt title for a beguiling, expansive collection of songs. Astonishingly, Juul has only been playing live since last February.

Discover more about Indians here; Juul and his band play Bowery Ballroom on November 28 and Music Hall of Williamsburg on November 29.
