In a sad turn of events, Andreas Catjar-Danielsson, a prominent member of the Swedish electronic music band Covenant, has passed away following a long struggle with cancer. He was 51 years old.

Andreas's contributions to Covenant were significant, as evidenced by the band's tribute to him with the release of the "Andreas EP" exactly one year after his passing. The EP features five experimental tracks, including covers of "Winter Kills" by Yazoo and "A Rider on a White Horse" by Lee Hazlewood. The EP is not only a testament to his artistic legacy but also serves as a charity release, with proceeds going to support Andreas's widow and their two children.

Prior to joining Covenant, Andreas was a member of the band Souls. His musical journey extended beyond Covenant, as he also composed music for theaters and produced the next Abu Nein album. His last music work was an excellent cover of the Bow Wow Wow track "The Man Mountain", recorded with Antonia Henn.
