Flamboyant

The band met for the first time in a suburb near a small’ish Swedish town. Immediately the band started writing their own music. The band has never played other people’s music.The band developed and tried different styles of music but stuck with melodies which has always been a focus of the band. The music has been performed live all through the years. The band has played at all kinds of events and venues including school parties, youth halls, sport centres, assembly halls, restaurants, private and university parties and more.The band lived in different places in Sweden during a number of years. Despite this the band stayed together and continued to write new music and recording it. During the lifetime of the band their expression has been refined and older material has never been thrown out but reused as it was to good to put on the shelf. Some of the songs on the band’s first album are over ten years old.The band has recorded their music on a number of occasions and in various places. Starting off in their own studio with a two inch tape recorder, later on in a professional studio at the School of music, in a studio by the archipelago on the west coast of Sweden and in two wardrobe size studios before finally ending up in a studio in the south of Stockholm where the new album was completed.The band create their music through a collective, creative method. From an outline by somebody in the band an arrangement is worked out during rehearsals. The lyrics often come along at a later stage and describes, almost always, personal experiences expressed in a more or less concrete way. The band has, during its whole existence, had the ambition to create new music. Music that nobody has heard before. The band believes, maybe naively, that there is still room to create new music that is impossible and unnecessary to compare to other music. Only the listener can decide if the band has been successful or not.The band plays and lives in Stockholm, Sweden. The band will release their new CD on 16 April 2007. The band is FLAMBOYANT.
