Gothenburg, Sweden-based indie rock outfit Junip were formed in the late '90s by singer/songwriter Jose Gonzalez. The trio, which consists of Gonzalez on guitar and vocals, drummer Elias Araya, and keyboard player Tobia Winterkorn, crafts dark and moody indie folk in the vein of their founder. Junip released their debut 7" in 2000 on their own Kakafoni imprint. Araya then spent nearly five years studying art in Norway and Finland, while Winterkorn worked as a teacher and Gonzalez launched a successful solo career. The trio regrouped for the Black Refuge EP (2006) and once again for the album Fields (2010). ~ James Christopher Monger
