"Snazzy and totally ace melodies and lots of positive energy. Grade "A" pure pop!"
- Not Lame, Jan-07
***
"Leave Him Behind" could have been a good tune for ABBA. "One Good Reason" would fit in perfectly with the Searchers’ greatest hits."
- Paul Freeman, Palo Alto Daily News, Oct-06
***
"The album is full of fantastic 12 string guitars and jingle jangle pop harmonies. A delightful cd from start to finish, this scores a big grade A."
- Jam Recordings, Jan-07

THE TANGERINES were formed in Stockholm, Sweden, 1996. Both Per and HÃ¥kan were founding members of Swedish recording artists Rain Refrain in the late 80s. Together they have continued to explore the art of the three-minute pop song. Their latest, self-titled CD is pure power pop - 12 songs packed with rich melodies, harmonies and guitars. Enjoy!
