About Me

!! Things Gone Wrong !!
We got our name from one of our songs 'All The Things Gone Wrong'. We started out playing together in december 2005. Jonas, Mikael and Ruben got together in Rubens studio 'Zubba' for a session just to see if we could agree on something. This was the first time Mikael and Ruben met eachother.
Jonas and Mikael had been playing together for a few years in a pub band called 'Yippi Ka Yeah' (dying while making a living, so to say...)
Jonas and Ruben first met that fall for a local Christmas show, introduced to eachother by mutual friend, bassist Dag Anders Sandell.
The first session brought the song 'Horizon' to life. A song which Jonas had made a quick demo of just a few weeks prior to this meeting. Jonas sang and played the piano, while Mikael played both bass and guitar, and Ruben played the drums and acted out the role of producer.
The next session was held in January 2006, now with Fredrik Johnsen on guitar. He had also been playing in the same Christmas show as Jonas and Ruben. Jonas and Fredrik knew eachother from the band Glorious where they both played back in 2000.
The band has been trying to develope a sound together, and the next thing scheduled now is a recording session to record a few songs with the intention of releasing them somewhere. So let's hope the record companies like us... ;)
Up till now, Things Gone Wrong have written 8 songs together. 4 of which are presented here. The titles are as follows:
* Horizon (Dalen, Groth, Jensen)
* Ego-You (Groth)
* All The Things Gone Wrong (Groth)
* "Untitled/Unfinished 1" (Dalen, Groth, Jensen, Johnsen)
* Go! (Groth)
* "Untitled/Unfinished 2" (Dalen)
* Insecurity (Dalen)
More titles will be added when they're done. Ruben is currently in the USA for some gigs, and we're playing 2 gigs this easter at Caf Oscar in FRXTA. We going to use Magnus Buer Hansen on drums for these sessions. It'll be swell... ;)
