SHOOTING JOHN balances on the verge between americana and indie flavored
folk and pop/rock. On their recently recorded studio album, HAPPINESS +/-,
the six piece Swedish act delivers melodies of sadness and joy with
honesty and intensity, favoring the mellowness of the minor keys but not
without a hint of hope. The dark, melancholic voice of singer Peder
Gravlund contrasts beautifully to the frail singing of Helena Arlock, all
framed by well balanced arrangements and melodies as well as thoughtful
lyrics.
Their 2005 release, MOODSWINGS, brought great critical response, tv- and
radio appearances as well as tour dates in Germany, England and Sweden.
2007 they released their second album Happiness +/- and played a bunch of shows in Scandinavia and the U.S. Coming up is a release for Happiness +/- including bonustracks in Germany, Austria and Switzerland in August 2008 followed by a tour in september/october.
