Biography

Andria Degens, was born in Caterham, Surrey, England, and is the artist behind Pantaleimon.

Pantaleimon are set to release a new album, the fourth long player, on the 24th of June 2013. ‘The Butterfly Ate The Pearl’ is the follow up to 2008’s remix and collaboration collection ‘Heart Of the Sun’. Recorded and compiled during the last year, and co-produced with Hugo Race, the new album is another collection of hypnotic, magical and understated songs that Degens has become known for , but with ‘The Butterfly Ate The Pearl’ there is a more psychedelic feel and a real progression of sound and it is without doubt the most accomplished release to date.

Andria Degens provides vocals, but plays a diverse range of instruments and effects including distorted and delayed dulcimers, guitar, keyboard, Indian harmonium, bass, samples, loops, pedal board, fx, vibra, bells, tambourine and sansula. She also brings together an array of eclectic musicians to elevate the dream, evolving the tracks into their full potency – Will Oldham (Bonnie Prince Billy), James Blackshaw, Otto Hauser (Vertiver), Jay Darlington (Oasis, Kula Shaker), Steve Finnerty (Alabama 3), to name a few.

Over the last few years Pantaleimon have released an acclaimed collection of EPs, singles and albums, the most recent releases being ‘Heart of the Sun’ (which contained remixes by the likes of Andrew W.K., Stephen O’Malley, Fovea Hex and Chris Carter/Cosey Fanny Tutti), and the EP, ‘Tall Trees’.

    Очень, очень хорошо. До этого я знал её только как исполнительницу одной из "Идумей" на роскошном альбоме C93 "Black Ships Ate The Sky". Кажется, для того альбома Дэвид выбрал самые сливки музыкального подполья.

    classification of music is not a question of intentions of the artist

    @ishtar1917: Given that she is married to David Tibet its very likely she was named after the Christian Saint.

    BTW, does anyone know why the singer chose such name for herself? (the only associacion I have with it is a Christian saint, but I bet he's more worshipped among Orthodox Christians, and western people don't know a lot about him.

    This music is just soooo great, why haven't I heard it before? I fell in love with it. I wish Pantaleimon'd hold a concert someplace closer to my homecountry than Britain is, like in Poland or in Russia =)

    I see nothing apocalyptic about it, but I think the Tibet association is bound to cause some labels to spring forth. Last.fm tags are usually silly anyway. Regardless, lovely guitars and lovely music.
