CALEXICO BOXING AT THE SLANG OFFICE Junip was formed in Gothenburg, Sweden, in the late '90s by José Gonzalés (guitar, vocals), Elias Araya (drums) and Tobias Junip was formed in Gothenburg, Sweden, in the late '90s by José Gonzalés (guitar, vocals), Elias Araya (drums) and Tobias Winterkorn (organ, moog). Their first 7” came out in 2000 and they self-released the Black Refuge EP in 2006. RCRDLBL distributed the single "Chickens/"Azaleadalan" in 2009. Junip has periodically gathered together and recorded when schedules permitted, but this is the first time all the members will focus exclusively on the band. An EP and full-length will be released in 2010 on City Slang and global touring will commence this spring. The touring band will add two members, making it a five-piece. Junip is now offering a first listen to their new music with a free download of the song “Rope and Summit” on their website. ***Update you can also download the song directly here now*** Their sound can be familiar to those who have listened to Gonzalez’s critically acclaimed records, but added to the mix on top of his nylon stringed guitar and distinctive voice are organs, analog synths and drums. The songs are often dynamic, melodic and shadowy. The influences are far ranging from Neu! to Shuggie Otis all the way to John Martyn. But Junip does mostly sound like Junip.
