About Elskavon

On his album Origins, Chris Bartels takes on the role of singer-songwriter for the first time under his Elskavon moniker, unveiling a voice that wouldn’t sound out of place next to vocal-forward artists like Justin Vernon, Jónsi, or Baths, who master the balance between conventional songcraft and bold, idiosyncratic experimentation. Origins is vast yet intimate, fluttering yet cohesive, tattered yet clean, a little like rainfall during sunlight. Bartels' other music endeavors include Blurstem, Dellwood, Glass Echoes, Olma, Bora York, Mum Child, with Anthem Falls Music as an umbrella and record label for many of his projects.
