As a member of both Frida Hyvönen and Ane Brun’s live band (plus having her own band, Paintbox), at the same time acting as a solo artist, it’s natural to see her open tonight’s Ane Brun show at the magnificent venue of Cirkus. With the cello as her only company on stage she enthralls the audience. Make yourself comfortable for […]
Linnea Olsson at Cirkus
Ane Brun at Cirkus
A sold out show at Cirkus in Stockholm is probably the ultimate proof of popularity. Not that we doubted the potential of Ane before, but her current album and the ongoing tour is a gigantic success for one of today’s most talked about Scandinavian artists. We’re very proud to be able to promote her to a wider audience and this […]
[ingenting] at Tellus Bio
Labrador’s finest, and the first pop band ever to play the Royal Dramatic Theatre in Stockholm, hit the stage as headlining act of the night in a small but crowded neighbourhood theatre called Tellus. Thanks to some nice Amnesty people we all got to see an amazing line-up this evening. The band did their first gig in a year and seemed […]
The Forest & The Trees at Tellus Bio
Unfortunately the concert was recorded without a master soundboard feed, using only microphones. Stockholm based husband and wife combo The Forest & The Trees released their debut single in May 2010 via Ill Fit Recordings. We’ve been airing their song “To The Forest (I Need Some Peace)” over 400 times and it’s just an awesome promising band who deserves to […]
The Soft Eyes at Tellus Bio
According to the story of The Soft Eyes it all started in the end of the nineties at a Superchunk gig where Johan Sigerud met Daniel Värjö (The Concretes) on front row. The trio’s third member is Linda Hörnqvist on drums. After recording several EPs/CDRs the band released their debut in 2005 and another fine album is out this Summer […]
Jeremy Jay at Strand
Our American favourite Jeremy Jay and his temporary band of french musicians got stuck in the middle of the Stockholm Half Marathon on their way to the venue, delaying soundcheck a couple of hours. However, bad luck turned into a great set from this fine K Records artist. You’ve probably heard his masterpiece “Just Dial My Number” on air before. […]
Hell On Wheels at Strand
Swedish pop stalwarts Hell On Wheels are back with the new album “One Ros” (out on Hybris in June), their fourth and the first one in five years. The band quickly gained attention after an early gig in 2001 where they supported Belle & Sebastian in Stockholm. This show at Falling & Laughing marks one of more than 400 around […]
Gypsy & the Cat at Debaser Slussen
Originally from Melbourne, Australia, now based in London, Gypsy & the Cat started out as late as two years ago. Inspired by the likes of Simon & Garfunkel, Fleetwood Mac and modern acts such as Justice and Daft Punk the duo quickly gained a huge popularity, now followed by more than 40000 people on Facebook. In June they supported no […]
Topprovdjur at Debaser Slussen
Is it Trans Am or Don Caballero playing funk? No, it’s Nacka/Stockholm based quintet Topprovdjur (“top predator” in English) throwing their dancy post rock from stage in a playful but distinct way. As usual too few people come to see support acts, but this is a very promising young band to keep an extra eye on. Who knows, they might […]
Sin Fang at Debaser Medis
“You’re too kind, this is my favourite show ever” says Sindri Már Sigfússon in a facetious way before playing the set’s most low key song, Two Boys from the current album Summer Echoes. Seabear founder Sindri has released two critically acclaimed albums as Sin Fang (Bous). We remember buying the first one on a lovely colourful vinyl during our visit […]
