Moneybrother - Brännö Serenad
A little something: A brilliant performace by Moneybrother of Håkan Hellström's "Brännö Serenad" with Anders Widmark on Piano, Sweden's greatest jazz performer (ok, I just said that to kiss up to my girlfriend's family - I don't really like jazz). (PA)
Laakso - High drama
Damn, I love this band. (MG)
Eskobar - Someone new
Say what you like about Eskobar - they had a European border breaker with this track, and managed to secure a loyal and solid fanbase - oh and also got stoned at Emmaboda, but even that was an achievment! This is the band's greatest hour - timeless? You decide. (JC)
Mattias Alkberg BD – Politix
From 2005 and Bear Quartet member Mattias Alkberg - a dose of charming melodic Swedish punk. (ST)
Madrugada - Hands up
This is a live television appearance from 2001 or so featuring Madrugada doing one of their best songs, the supersultry "Hands up - I love you" from their second album, "The nightly disease". (NB)
Tiger Lou - Lucky escape (live)
I love this band too, and a single b-side, even better! (MG)
Suburban Kids with Biblical Names- Rent a wreck
A summery and deadpan video from the SKWBN boys. Looks like they had a lot of fun making this. (ST)
Le Sport - Tell no one about tonight
A bit of an arty video from the terrific Le Sport. Not sure what's really going on in it, but it's a fantastic song. (ST)
