About Me

Pretty In Panic is a new project that woke when Dexter's Moon went asleep during the late spring of 2006, for different reasons. Since I (Jenny) still write everything the basic emotions will still be the same in the lyrics, but maybe the music will sound a little bit different. If this is the case it's thanks to Mikael Bengtsson (a.k.a. Juni Jarvi), who so far produced the two songs available here. The project is intended to be all duets, with different talented friends who are up for it. Mikael himself sings on You-turn, and my very best friend Rasmus Sandsten sings on Emergency Exit. There's plenty more where that came from, so just hold your breath.And just for the record, here's the deal with the Kellerman family tree: my older brother MÃ¥rten is Statemachine; my younger brother Rasmus is Tiger Lou and Araki; Rasmus's wife Andrea, i.e. my sister-in-law, is Firefox AK; Andrea's twin sister Timea is married to Nicke, guitarist in Love is All; MÃ¥rten is married to Sara (even though she kept her last name Appelgren), who is a brilliant photographer and responsible for most press pictures of all of us. I also have a brand new project with my youngest brother Bimo, who is 5 years old, and of course eager to be like his older siblings. We call ourselves SjÃ¶rÃ¶varpiraterna (Pirates of the Sea, or something like that), Bimo plays guitar and I think I'm supposed to drum, and we'll both sing. We haven't rehearsed that much yet, but I promised to have a show at his house on Christmas Eve, so I better stick to that.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
