With their beginnings in the mid eighties, Covenant hail from the south of Sweden in a town called Helsingborg. Their music originally was described as big band electronics, but since the early nineties when their membership was pared down to the current trio, their sound has been an accessible blend of electro-pop and industrialism, infinitely danceable, filled with an uplifting and upbeat energy. Igniting the E.B.M. scene with unstoppable dance floor hits, Covenant remain the mark to reach for many new emerging bands. With the perfect combination of Eskil's haunting, dark, majestic vocals, pulsating techno beats, creative noise samples, and amazing synth work, the band has created a strong North American following as well as an enormous European base. Their sound has been compared to an assemblage of styles ranging from Prodigy, Front 242, Front Line Assembly, Apoptygma Berzerk, VNV Nation, and Kraftwerk; but the final result is like nothing anybody else has been putting out. Covenant has redefined the way Electronic Body Music is perceived. * Eskil Simonsson : lead vocals, lead composition, engineering, lyrics, production, synths * Joakim Montelius : lead lyrics, composition, production, synths, additional vocals * Daniel Myer : engineering, production, synths, additional vocals (only live) * Clas Nachmanson : engineering, production, synths, additional vocals (will not tour with the band in 2007) 09.09.2011 UK - Glasgow - Classic Grand 10.09.2011 UK - London - O2 Academy Islington + Slimelight afterparty 11.09.2011 UK - Newcastle - Riverside 12.09.2011 UK - York - The Duchess 13.09.2011 UK - Birmingham - Eddie´s Rock Club 29.09.2011 EE - Tallinn - Rock Cafe 30.09.2011 LV - Riga - Nabaklab 01.10.2011 GR - Athens - Kyttaro Live Club
