I had the pleasure of DJing and hosting The Mary Onettes their first time out to L.A. on May 7th of 2008, Pretty close to the date. They had previously booked shows in 2010 but had to cancel because of the volcano that erupted and caused havoc through out Europe and the UK.
Continuing the Swedish Saga is Det Vackra Livet, Which derives from
brothers Philip and Henrik Ekström who you might recognise from The Mary Onettes. Inspired by their grandmothers memoires and Swedish/Finnish poet Claes Andersson singer Philip wrote fifteen songs in a two months-creative outburst in the fall of 2010.
I'am quickly falling for this band just as I did with TMO, Give it go yourself.
