Since the creation of Velvet Revolution in 2015, Daniel Erdmann has often heard people referring to his band as “Velvet Underground”, instead of Velvet Revolution. The confusion caused by the trio's homonymy with the New York band made him wonder, and he finally went looking for his vinyl copy of the legendary album with its Andy Warhol cover. It was a re-discovery of Lou Reed's raw, realistic lyrics, ballads with their simple, haunting melodies, and then Nico's voice and the infinite sweetness of her bewitching melodies. In the end, the slip of the tongue also revealed a proximity of intent, a quest for a velvety sound with a firm texture, easy-going melodies, a combination of fiery and delicate.
This listening experience was the starting-point inspiration for this new project combining music, text and song. By inviting Serbian singer and actress Jelena Kuljić, Daniel Erdmann strives to create an intimate, sensitive and powerful atmosphere. Jelena's captivating voice, halfway between singing and spoken word, brings an extra expressive dimension to the band's compositions. With her unique approach, Jelena will push the band out of their comfort zone. Her presence will help to create new spaces for creativity, both in the compositions and arrangements, as well as in the improvised parts. After three highly successful albums – A Short Moment of Zero G (2016), Won’t Put No Flag Out (2019), and Message in a Bubble (2023) –, the recording of this new Velvet Revolution project will again be released on BMC Records.
