Sea and Air, if you translate it from German (Sie und Er) means she and he. This married duo – German rocker Daniel Benjamin and Greece dancer Eleni Stavros – is able to bring the magic to the stage, with their airy vocals and the knowledge to play 5 instruments at the same time. They don’t need samplers; they just need an acoustic guitar, cembalo, organ, drums and a glockenspiel. Their music is described as atmospheric indie rock with cembalo, inspired by the baroque melodies of J.S.Bach and the Berlin Krautrock. You think, that baroque is not really up to date anymore? Come and see for yourself on 26th of May in the LMB. And be amazed, when Eleni is playing with her right hand cembalo and with her left hand the drums and Daniel play the drums, guitar and sings at the same time…
The Greece folklore dancer, who sang as a kid only under wraps and the German composer, who can’t read notes? The harpsichordist, who is afraid of flying and the guitarist, who is afraid of the sea? The bass player, who plays the instrument with the feet and the drummer, who rather stayed with his punk band? All this is Sea + Air. They met in the band Jumbo Jet and worked together on the solo project of Daniel. Since that time Sea & Air were the opening band for Sufjan Stevens, Woven Hand, White Stripes, Flaming Lips and even Whitney Houston in 2010! Their debut album “My Heart´s Sick Chord” was a great success, after the release they went on a world tour for two years, playing more than 1000 concerts. Last year they had their Czech premiere at Colours of Ostrava.
