MP3: 01. Alamo Race Track - Black Cat John Brown Alamo Race Track sunt 4 suedezi din Malmo, un loc de unde in ultima vreme rasare foarte multa muzica buna. Au fost comparati cu formatii gen Spoon, Peter Bjorn & John, Sparklehouse sau Gomez si spre suprinderea mea am avut bucuria sa vad ca si Andrei de la Cathartic Media a scris despre ei in martie anul trecut. Eu i-am descoperit la inceputul lunii cand am primit de la ei 3 mp3-uri pentru blog din care unul care mi-a placut cel mai [...]

It takes quite a performer to silence a bar full of jaded Los Angelinos with only a shaker, prerecorded piano track and a perfectly pitched nasal croon. Thankfully, Peter Morén's chutzpa is well-founded. Stepping away from his band mates (You might know him better as the "Peter" in Peter Bjorn & John 1 ) Peter's solo project not unlike the his work with the trio.
