The Swedish jazz trio Esbjörn Svensson Trio (as heard backing Nicolai Dunger on "Soul Rush") recently won the German Jazz Critic Award for Best Album and the German Jazz Award for sales of 10,000 copies for their album "Strange Place for Snow". They also won the Choc L'Annee, an award from France's Jazzmagazine for making one of year's 12 best albums and the Guinness Jazz In Europe Award 2002 from Ireland.
The Finnish band HIM reports that they have been signed by Universal Records for distribution in the US. The band's upcoming album "Love Metal" will be out early next year and they plan on concentrating on touring Europe for awhile. They are also shooting two new videos coming up, one with Bam Margera of Jackass in LA and another with director Stefan Lindfors to be filmed in Finnish Lapland.
Looks like I neglected to note what songs Kristofer Åström recorded in yesterday's update. They are as follows:
One good moment
If you really wanna know
Satan (new version)
You are my sunshine (cover song, orignally written by Jimmy Davis and Charles Mitchell)
One more drink
There's also some new live music from Kristofer Åström and Hidden Truck available. Watch them play "Leaving Song" right here or check out part of their performance from the Crossing Border Fest in Amsterdam here. (Requires RealPlayer)
