Artist: 
Philemon

Philemon embodies the power of melody. Echoes from the sixties, nineties and contemporary indie folk can be heard in his lo-fi pop. Philemon boils together a rich, harmonious chemistry with musical molecules of The Beatles, Grandaddy, Elliott Smith or Andy Shauf. Extraordinary chord progressions and clever arrangements within organic song structures add quirkiness to the signature of Philemon.

BIRTH OF PHILEMON
Anton De Boes, the mind behind Philemon, had a musical upbringing. Being son to a Beatles-freak and a music teacher, he was basically nursed with melodies and scales. Anton took his first musical steps as bass player. In 2017 he revealed himself as songwriter and front man: Philemon was born. The release of his debut single ‘Tomorrow’ was immediately applauded by many. And after being compared with Pavement by Belgian magazine Humo, Philemon went full speed ahead.

DEWEZE SESSIONS/NEW EP ‘HOURGLASS’
Various recording sessions with producer Pascal Deweze enabled Philemon to sign a contract with the indie label 62TV Records (M. Ward, Girls in Hawaii, The Tellers). ‘Are You Coming To Get Me’ was released as single. In the meantime Philemon transformed into a band and has proven their collective talent by opening the stage for Dope Lemon, Foxwarren (Andy Shauf), Phosphorescent and Stef Kamil Carlens. Philemon continued collaborating with Pascal Deweze and recorded their first EP. As a result, ‘Hourglass’ is a collection of six captivating indie songs.

HOURGLASS OF BEAUTY AND TRANSIENCE
With ‘Hourglass’ sparkling melodies are glued together with melancholic day-dreaming about the ephemerality of love and life. The hourglass figures as metronome of beauty and transience… And the listener is overwhelmed by the singer-songwriter’s recherche du temps perdu.
