ABOUT ELLIOT'S CRAZY COMPASS

Elliot's Crazy Compass was founded in 2018 and consists of the founders of Eternal Erection. The band's style is genre-free, alternative pop with a variety of influences, including rock, electro, soul, jazz and hip hop. ECC's music is a kind of soundtrack music. There is room for visual associations in the songs and therefore it has felt natural to collaborate with visual artists. The Crazy Compass Gallery on the band's Instagram account combines ECC's improvised music with moving images produced by visual artists. The cover also features artwork by visual artists. ECC's concerts are enhanced by spectacular live projections, lighting and stage design. 

Snapshot Gallery 2020 (EP), Bubbles 2021 (LP), In This World 2022 (LP).
