State of Sea is Danish-American group composed of three music veterans:
James Craft, Anna Roemer and Anna Scharling. The trio has combined the 'Nordic sound' with traditional American songwriting and draws from electronica and folk to create
State of Sea's unique, ambient sound. Illusions stands out with guitar, piano, vocals, strings, percussion and touches of synthesizer.
State of Sea's name references the most secretive place on earth: the sea. The EP was inspired from group's fantasies of Edward Snowden's experience while fleeing to Russia. The musical collaboration has imagined both a musical and creative journey of traveling between borders and into new, sonic landscapes.
James Craft is a composer, teacher, and songwriter in Los Angeles. As a songwriter and lead vocalist, Craft fronted the band La Strada in NY, which cut three albums and toured the US and Canada.
