About Me

real editor best profile tools

We started as an a-capella song quartet in 2004, the first letter in each voice making up the name. From the very start we wanted to bring a moment of movement and excitement to our audience. Apart from our own music we sing new versions of familiar songs as well as new, fresh and unexploited music. The lyrics is fundamental to us and we want every listener to perceive the complete poetry of the pieces. Today we work both with harmony singing, solo variations and with instruments: violin, piano, guitars, banjo, bass and percussion. In the passed years we have performed at various events: Firework festival, Christmas concerts or corporate and private events. We also regularly sing a-capella at the services in the Church of Järfälla.
Our first album "Ett äventyr" ("An adventure") was released in the autumn of 2006.
In June 2008 we played at the Aguéli Art Gallery in Stockholm and in August we played at the county library of Järfälla. In June this year we held two concerts at the same art gallery again. We have such a joy in performing for our lovingly listening audience.
