Right at the Golden Hour in the Swedish summer night, the Lollapalooza audience gets served a big dose of Solar Power by none other than New Zealand pop powerhouse Lorde. Lorde and some of her musicians (all color-coordinated in yellow suits), enter the stage on a rotating staircase, which looks very similar to the sun […]

Summer has already started in Stockholm and festival season is thriving. Or, I would say blossoming, if we refer to the Rosendal’s Garden Party. It’s been a while since the RGP took place, so it’s time to make all those who didn’t have a chance to attend jealous. Why was it special for me? Because […]
The inimitable Florence Welch and her Florence and the Machine headlined the Thursday of the Rosendal Garden Party, bringing an unbridled live energy, paired with plenty of charisma and devotion.

So last week’s Melodifestivalen saw Liamoo advancing straight to the final with what was clearly the strongest effort of the night. John Lundvik got to join him with his rather bland ballad, but it’s obvous the people love him. The new point counting system didn’t turn out so exciting after all, when John got the […]
So Melodifestivalen finally kicked off last weekend, with Cornelia Jakobs making a big impression and Robin Bengtsson getting to join her in the final. On the negative side, the app voting crashed, so we didn’t get to see the new and improved counting of the votes – so we have something to look forward to […]
