Philippe Longchamps and Adam Hansen-Chambers met in Malmo, Sweden in 2012. After discovering that they shared a similar taste in music, as well as shared political and philosophical ideas, they started working together on a music project named Atlas Volt. Both Adam and Philippe already had music they were working on individually, so they exchanged ideas with each other and while capitalizing on their new creative chemistry, they collaborated to make what was to become their first release: Atlas Volt’s debut EP “Eventualities.” The EP featured 5 tracks ranging from indie pop and prog rock, to post-metal and alternative rock. The very fact that Atlas Volt exists is a real “tour de force” since Adam and Philippe rarely meet in person. Adam lived in Sweden for four years before moving back to England in 2012, while Philippe still lives and works as a teacher in Sweden, since he moved there from Canada in 2002. Adam and Philippe meet on special occasions in Malmo or London in order to write, record and produce their songs. Because of the distance separating them, they complete everything else by sharing audio files over the Internet. Furthermore, Adam and Philippe completed their latest record while working full-time and completing studies in their respective countries. Atlas Volt is proud to be a virtual band.
