Anna Murphy (vocals, hurdy gurdy), Merlin Sutter (drums) and Ivo Henzi (guitars) have toured the world for over a decade as members of the Swiss metal band Eluveitie, forming a bond that has proven stronger than any adversity; Out of the split with Eluveitie in 2016 a new band is born: Cellar Darling.

The three musicians are taking the summer to write new music, and are returning to the stage before year's end:

"We are excited to share with you that we are already hard at work on music with our new band, Cellar Darling - and that we have already confirmed a show at the end of this year! We feel incredibly inspired and will be taking the summer to write and create."

"What will it sound like, you ask? We can't yet say. All we know is that we will let creativity flow wherever it wants to go, without any limitations or concerns. You will get Ivo's epic riffs, so it will be heavy. You will get Merlin's drums, so it will be loud. And you will get Anna's unique voice, so it will be both powerful and fragile. Oh, and of course we won't neglect the hurdy gurdy!"
