Dreamy pop from Vildhjärta/na to start off your Monday. Don’t let the visually stimulating video distract you too much as you slave away at your jobs. I’m very excited to hear more for these guys.
It’s my BFF’s birthday and in true Swedes are Sweet fashion, I dedicate my blog to those in my life whose special day it is by posting their favorite Swedish song. Sahara Hotnights are just as rocking as she is. Happy Birthday Punk Rock Girl!
Their second album was released back and April and I am so happy to have found this today so I can spread the word just a few months later. I couldn’t find a video for the song “Dance to Our Heartbeats” that danced its way into our heart, but I was able to dig deep and find “Diggin Deep” to add some joy to all your ears.
Electro pop Friday is back with Niva from Stockholm. Smooth ambient grooves, no so much dance but still perfect to start off your weekend.
With Summer coming to an end (unless you’re in Southern California), I have created a special playlist to feature some of my favorite songs. I’m hoping that with this list you can keep summer going in your heart and will warm you in the fall and winter months ahead. Also, it features some songs by artists on this site that have I have not posted on the blog. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have over the past few days as it’s gone through many changes just within the last hour. See this as a Thank You for all my followers new and old. You guys have sure made me feel special the past few days.
While in Sweden, I had the pleasure of going over to the house of Olaf and Tina from I’m from Barcelona. Tina has also supplied me with some bands to feature on the site. They were two of the nicest people I’ve had the pleasure of having fika with.
So now the time has come for me to feature one of their songs. I’m sure if you listen to this song it will immediately be stuck in your head all day long. I love the joyful feeling of this song. And guys, they aren’t from Barcelona, they come from Jönköping, Sweden.
A few weeks ago I posted “A Million Lux” by Chirping that has quickly become part of my regular listening regime. Yesterday, they released a new song that leaves me anticipating their new album. I’m excited to hear more from these guys.
All it took was someone to light a little fire under my ass to make me want to bring you guys a better blog and an easier way to enjoy the music that I love and hold dear to my heart. I dedicate hours of my time to bringing out what I feel is some of the best music in the world. This blog is my heart, my soul, this “music is my boyfriend”(To quote CSS from Brazil). I will continue to devote hours to bring you sweet sounds for all your pretty ears.
As you seen yesterday, I now have a Spotify account dedicated strictly to Swedes are Sweet. The playlists are divided into each month. I also realized not everyone has access to Spotify and you have to sign up to listen. So I have created a Souncloud account that will have playlists for you to access without having to sign up for their website. The playlists are not completed yet, but I will have them done soon. Please enjoy by clicking the link below.
A quite lovely duo from Göteborg, Snäckan & Pärlan are a beautiful feast for your ears. Melancholy guitar melodies combined with melodic vocals are a true delight. You can also find more music through Rebekah Reinhard’s (the singer) solo page on Soundcloud. I’m including both for your listening pleasure.
Last week, I quickly scrambled a playlist of songs on this site from my personal spotify account and I promised that I would soon have a break down of posts by month. So as promised, I have started breaking down the playlists by month on Spotify. It’s currently up to date and will be growing. I will include the new songs as I add them to the blog. That way if you want to listen to the music, you no longer need to head over to youtube and it’s all in one place.
