So. I am way super into Swedish pop music at the moment. Have been locked away writing the past couple of weeks during which I made some myspace discoveries that simply must shout from the hills about.



My new absolute favorite band of the moment consists of a group of girl high school students that go by the name Those Dancing Days. Kind of Go Go's meets Northern Soul, and its pure pop cuteness with a mean hook. I just can't these songs outta my head. The lead singer Linnea has really big hair and a crooked cute smile too!
They must be on school holiday since it looks like they are touring around Europe. If you go, please steal them and put them in your pocket and send them to me. I will pay the Fedex bill.
Just went out and bought the EP which is out on V2 records Sweden.

Another new discovery is a boy band called Pacific!  I am way more into my dancing girls above but wanted to make this page thematic and do a whole Swedish thing. Ahem. Continuing on...
Tahiti 80 + Air + Xanadu soundtrack. I am a die hard fan of the latter so anything that reminds me of Olivia Newton John cruising Venice Beach on roller skates in a peasant dress  is pure genius to me. The album is kind of an ode to West coast. Song titles like "Sunset blvd"  and "Poolside bungalow" make me homesick for the couple of weeks I just spent in LA at my beloved                                                            Palihouse hote in WeHo.
