low key orchestra – there’s no band name more understated than that. The name, chosen by Sönke Torpus, is as fitting as it is unexpected, perfectly capturing the essence of music that holds something truly magnificent.
But let's start from the beginning. low key orchestra is the new musical project by Sönke. Those who are familiar with his previous band, Torpus & the Art Directors, will have fond memories and will be excited to hear that new music is on the way.
“maybe words” is the first of several songs by low key orchestra to be released this year, and it’s simply a beautiful piece of music. With this song, Sönke has crafted a quiet anthem for those who might need a helping hand or a friendly ear.
It seems to say "If I can’t be there in person, here’s a chorus that will offer more comfort than a thousand embraces."
Each line radiates genuine compassion. Working with producer Helgi Helgasson, Sönke has turned a deeply personal lyric into warm, layered music.
low key orchestra has a distinct, unique presence, floating in a world of sound influenced by bands like Bright Eyes, Whitney and The Flaming Lips. The songwriting, however, brings to mind the early works of Coldplay and Keane.
Sönke has said that, for a long time, he lost touch with music. Thankfully, it has found his way back to it - or is it the other way around?
