In the United States, a "Botanica" is a small esoteric store where you can purchase elixirs and all sorts of occult goods. It is also the name four New Yorker's around frontman & keyboarder Paul Wallfisch selected for their band. And their music is also a bit mystical. Botanica disposes of a substantial arsenal of musical tools. Sombre, epic, scathing but sexy, Botanica has also been compared with a "Volksbühnen- adaptation of a Kaurismäki-film" (Intro). Frontman Paul Wallfisch is the charismatic focus of a stage show with a quality that is always full of atmosphere. Never predictable, always intelligent and brilliant, always macabre, wild, baffling and pleasantly chaotic.
