Choir Of Young Believers

16187 fans

An indie pop band with a penchant for folk lyrics combined with ornate orchestration, Choir of Young Believers is the brainchild of Danish musician Jannis Noya Makrigiannis. After the dissolution of his band Lake Placid, Makrigiannis retreated to the island of Samos in 2006 where he worked on new material. Returning to Copenhagen, he enlisted the help of several fellow musicians to record the 2007 EP Burn the Flag, which included “Sharpen Your Knife”, a single that brought some national attention to the group. Their debut LP, 2008’s This Is for the White in Your Eyes, was a critical and commercial hit, earning the band Best New Act at the Danish Music Awards. Rhine Gold followed in 2012. Seeking a new approach, Makrigiannis reconfigured the band’s line-up and changed his working methods by collaborating with producer Aske Zidore. Instead of bringing completed lyrics to the band, jam sessions were held to create new moods and atmospheres. The result was the 2016 album Grasque.
