Nils Frahm
Born in 1982, had an early introduction to music. During his childhood he was taught to play piano by Nahum Brodski, a student of the last scholar of Tschaikowski. It was through this that Nils began to immerse himself in the styles of the classical pianists before him as well as contemporary composers.
Today Nils Frahm works as an accomplished composer and producer in Berlin. In 2008 he founded Durton Studio, where he has worked with L.A. composer Dustin O' Halloran amongst other fellow musicians.

Heather Woods Broderick
Growing up in the relative quiet of the Maine countryside while learning a range of instruments and being sung to sleep by her parents playing folk songs, natural and rural sounds became central to Heather's sense of song, falling into a deeply personal realm.
Heather is the sister of Nils' good friend and Erased Tapes label mate Peter Broderick. She's also part of Efterklang's current tour band. Her debut solo album From the Ground was released in October 2009.
