About Me

Johan Melander & Nya stan is a swedish pop-group that has sprung out of the Gothenburg scene. The two released singles that you can download here has been met with sensational reviews. The bands selftiteld debut album will be released on april 19 2006. The music have often been compared to famous Swedish artist Jakob Hellman. Sure, if you are a fan of Hellman you are bound to like this group, but they also have their own unique sound with songwriter Johan Melanders mellancholic and euforic songs. Lyrics that point both to poets, like Henry Miller and Erica Jong and to plastic pop cliche`s. Enjoy!
