Formed some years ago out of a desire to create music that had a more emotional core, Her Name is Calla have since expanded to a six piece, seven if you include occasional addition of cello. The music they make is the music they want to make. Encapsulating brass, strings, pianos, oddities and anything else at their disposal, they craft songs and music that have a heart. That heart may not always be the one people are used to, not the bright red shining symbol of love and hope, but a heart somehow more personal.

It is not even easy to choose the angle from which to approach the answer to these questions. She seems to be a timeless, shapeless, colourless, maybe genderless, being, created by 6 (occasionally 7) British people spread across Leeds, Leicester and York. But Calla actually does not lack these things. It is just that, wandering around the void, Calla constantly changes shape and colour, transforms time, twists space, dies just to be reborn instantly. At some point, its ongoing analysis and synthesis resulted in the 2006 release of 'The Hideous Box', HNIC's first output, as a handcrafted Cdr and people started acknowledging Calla's existence. However, it seems that Calla's first explosive burst of life has been 18 minute-long 'Condor and River', first released as an EP on the Cdr label Loom Records, and pressed onto a proper 12'' vinyl record with MAYBESHEWILL on the flipside by Field Records later in 2008. In this snapshot of its metamorphic flight, Calla resembled an epic monster. Several lifecycles later, Gizeh Records had decided to join Calla's ride, releasing first the 'Moment of Clarity' 7'' in 2007 and later 'The Heritage', only a mini-album from the band's point of view, despite filling almost an hour of length, on Cd in 2008. And Calla continued its journey, stripping bear all parts not necessary for its existence just to rebuild numerous layers on top what had remained. In 2009, Calla's current manifestation in sound form consists of manifold instruments like guitar, drums, bass, trombone, cello, trumpet, piano, and live electronics. Preceded by the Dvd 'A Blood Promise', 'The Heritage', only released in the UK up to now, will see its re-release on both Cd and Vinyl and with new artwork on the European continent, as Denovali Records feels that it is about time to make HNIC's music known to a broader audience. Even at this point, a definite unveiling of Calla's identity seems out of reach. But, somebody once said that beauty is the perfect balance of order and complexity. HNIC may not be aware of this insight, their music is nonetheless a manifestation of it. You can listen to all songs of 'The Heritage' below or download them here for free. |
