german: Els & The Bliss saw the light of day in 2019 in a dark basement in Berlin-Kreuzberg. Since then, the band has provided a refreshing change beyond the usual. Emerging from a special concert by Lychee Lassi - with Based on drums, Beat on bass, Berger on guitar and DJ Illvibe - the turntables were replaced by the virtuoso vibraphone playing of Els Vandeweyer, thereby opening up new sound spaces. Today Els & The Bliss improvise freely and fearlessly, weaving beats, riffs and licks into a unique, energetic sound full of surprises.
