I was like, ‘What is going on?’” jokes Rasmus Stolberg in response to the critical success of 2007’s Parades, the latest LP from his Copenhagen-based ensemble, Efterklang. As we talk, he’s hustling from car to tour bus with a borrowed cell phone pinched between his shoulder and ear, moving luggage and fielding questions between breaths. Stolberg and his seven cohorts have just arrived in Boulder, Colo., and still need to make it to the post office in time to snag a rush shipment of T-shirts before heading into Denver for the first show of their extensive (and jokingly titled) Danish Dynamite tour with their friends in Slaraffenland. Today is slightly chaotic.
