Ståle Storløkken - Hammond, Rhodes, Mellotron Nikolai Hængsle - Electric bass Torstein Lofthus - Drums Terje Rypdal - Electric guitar. Five years ago, Elephant9 released two double live albums, Psychedelic Backfire I and II, the latter with guest guitarist Reine Fiske, whose favourite guitarist happened to be Terje Rypdal. With both albums out of print, Catching Fire is a most welcome addition to their discography. Recorded at a remarkable concert from 2017 in Oslo, Rypdal would turn 70 later in the year. David Fricke makes some interesting references to classic live albums in his liner notes, and we would like to add King Crimson´s underrated USA and numerous Pink Floyd 1970 live bootlegs into the equation, sharing the common energy level and sense of untamed intensity. Elephant9 established their reputation as a live powerhouse well before their album debut in 2008 and have since released six more studio albums as well as the live albums from 2019. Terje Rypdal´s musical history dates back to the early sixties as a teenage member of The Vanguards, and The Dream a few years later.

This album showcases an electrifying fusion of progressive rock, psychedelic jazz, and experimental soundscapes that push genre boundaries. The collaboration with Terje Rypdal?one of Norway?s most influential guitarists known for his work on ECM Records?adds depth and intensity to the band?s already dynamic style. ELEPHANT9 has previously received critical acclaim for their energetic live performances and innovative studio albums such as "Walk the Nile," which won a Spellemannprisen (Norwegian Grammy).
