ABOUT
KAELIS
KAELIS is a musical project which was born in 2019. It combines a modern and fresh sound with traditional heavy metal, symphonic metal and choral orchestrations.
The name of the band is derived from the Alpha Caeli star, from the Caelum constellation, and represents the energy and style of the group.
All band members are seasoned musicians from different projects who work together with a clear idea of what they wish to achieve. The combination of their diverse approaches to music, creative ideas, background and influences converge together in KAELIS.
Recorded at Jotun Studio with producer Leo Peña, ‘FAR GALAXY’ is the band’s debut album and is a statement of KAELIS’ musical direction: a bright new star on the Symphonic Metal scene’s firmament.
Now the band is working on their first LP, which is heading to a more electronic landscapes without losing the epicness of their orchestrations. Five of the songs in the album have been already presented live.
