Hobos & Architects by EPHEMERE
Six years in the making, Hobos & Architecs is the result of our journey together as a four-piece-lineup (for the first time!) with various collaborations. Brimming with one hour of music, the new album is more colorful and more diverse yet at the same time more accessible than any EPHEMERE relase to date.
From intimate, slow-motion ballads to 7-minute-long, uptempo wave-rock epics, from pure synth-indulgence to complex layers of many (and some quite unusual) analog instruments, Hobos & Architects invites you to come aboard and go on a wild and wonderous trip with the lost, the found and the in-between.
