21 more concerts to go


Every day before going to perform we meet in the lovely neighbourhood of Haga, a part of Göteborg that is well known for it's athmosphere. As in many towns such neighbourhoods have a history of being the place where artistic and creative people used to live and that made the whole area flower. Today it's one of the best places to live, cosy and trendy, small shops and lots of cafés. It's a mix of second hand shops and exclusivse shops. The cafés is a must for a visitor.
Warming up before concert. Mikael Godée.

5 concerts compleeted, 21 more to go.
Our set of songs feels really good. We knew from the beginning that our concert has mostly repertoire that is not well-known, and that can be a challenge. But the message has been clear so far. It's all about love. Every song is in one way or another part of the wedding traditions where love is celebrated. It's based in party-music from the old days, and our task as todays performers is to bring it to live again, the spirit of celebration.
Some of our listeners have heard the song written by Svarta Masken (Anna Myrberg), the creative author and performer who lived in Stockholm around 1910-1930.

I just love looking around in the smaller and more remote second hand shops. I just found this lovely coffé cup from England.
Today we have two concerts. Seeing more parts of Göteborg, seeing more white hair heroes, they are so sweet!
