Tobias Fröberg is set to release a new album on 10 March! Tobias always takes simple songs and beautifully masters them with guest vocals and instrument-building crescendos. Strings, acoustic guitar and piano? Yes please. Tobias has worked with Ane Brun and Peter Morén of Peter, Bjorn and John. I found a little treat in my inbox yesterday; a great new song called When we go to War. Which already has an official accompanying video... With some sensual dancing/fighting... and face painting yayyyy! This is very on-how-to-be-tribal-in-New-Yor k. Roar! From the new album, The Big Up. [...]
I've long held the opinion that Tobias Fröberg 's talents are best served as a sideman/producer (he's worked with Theresa Andersson , Peter Morén , Tomas Andersson Wij and many others, typically with strong results) and his new record "The big up" doesn't do much to sway me, but he does hit one out of the park every now and then and lead single "When we go to war" is a perfect example. It's dark and simmering in the right ways, giving a proper bottom to Tobias' lightweight vocals. The swell [...]
Tidigare rapporterade vi, via PSL, att Peter Morén nästa år släpper en skiva på svenska. Då var det februari som var planerat. I dag är det något annat som gäller! Den 3 mars släpps skivan med titeln I spåren av tåren som är producerad av Morén själv tillsammans med Tobias Fröberg. Singeln som är låten Esther , släpps 11 januari. Enligt utsago ska skivan innehålla spår av Motown, Stax, engelsk pop, brasiliansk tropicaliamusik, svensk visa och "ytterligare några stilar i skivhyllan". Spårlista 1) Ett land som inte [...]

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. I've actually been feeling thankful this year, imagine that. But it's true. For the past couple of years, I think my ability to feel truly grateful had been muted by my depression. But this year I'm doing much better, my family is doing well and, well, we have a lot to be thankful for. What are you thankful for? I'm feeling extra thankful for my husband this year. He puts up with a lot from me and I don't think I tell him often enough how much I appreciate his [...]

Review: Sofia Talvik Jonestown 5/5 carrots from Bluesbunny "This is an album that mixes fragility with emotional depth and it has an intensity that is most unusual. In fact, it could well be described as spiritual. The songs reward repeated listens and at the point of understanding, Ms Talvik's voice and Tobias Fröberg's sensitive, understated production gel perfectly. Elegant, sophisticated and warm, this is an easy recommendation for those of us who still have a soul." review by Bluesbunny Tags: album , [...]
CDbaby writes me in their email: "We're *really* picky about what we feature. We get about 200-250 new albums a DAY coming in here now, (about 200,000 total), and yours is one of the best we've ever heard." Read the full review here: SOFIA TALVIK: Jonestown Fresh from a powerful performance at 2008's Lollapalooza festival, Sweden's Sofia Talvik is now poised to conquer the States with the release of her devastatingly beautiful third album. It's a record of staggering elegance, with the faintest trace of Scandinavian twee and [...]

Theresa Andersson is by no means a new artist, but she's new to me and her latest record "Hummingbird, go!" feels incredibly fresh. The Swedish expat has lived in New Orleans for quite some time, but instead of recruiting local talent to back her, she decided to make this album on her own, performing an overwhelming majority of the instruments herself and recording in her kitchen. She also brought in fellow Gotlander Tobias Fröberg as producer, giving the album an extra Swedish touch. Theresa has been incredibly busy in recent weeks gearing [...]
"Att 29-åriga Sofia Talvik har döpt sin skiva efter ett ökänt massmord är ingen fingervisning om stämningen som råder på hennes tredje album. Jonestown är istället ytterst harmonisk i sin form med finstämda och traditionella gitarrpoplåtar som utan att skämmas slänger ett öga eller två bort över Atlanten. Att Talvik denna gång har slagit sina påsar ihop med Tobias Fröberg är kanske anledningen till att låtarna nu fått på sig poppigare kostymer. Jonestown är en snyggt välskräddad skiva med Clown som albumets mest estetiskt utmanande spår. " Kristin Lundell Svenska Dagbladet Tags: [...]

The woman behind Russian Red , Lourdes Hernandez, is a gifted 22-year old with a truly astounding voice. When I listened to her most recent album release, I was struck by its dimensionality. I think you'll find she is absolutely charming. With a full-bodied melody, I give you "They Don't Believe." Russian Red - " They Don't Believe " (mp3) And now for the shuffle: Tobias Froberg - " Blissful " (mp3) Ben Lee - " Catch My Disease " (mp3) * A Bring Me Up [...]
