Hi,
As you may have seen on our myspace page, we will be performing at the Lars Hollmer Tribute Night in Stockholm March 20th. Lars Hollmer was, as you may know, the keyboardplayer of Samla Mammas Manna. Since his sad departure from this world in December 2008 this has been an annual happening hosted by Stefan Dimle of Mellotronen/Paatos/Landberk/Morte Macabre. This year we will play alongside RUINS, YRA & MATS OCH MORGAN. Besides our own material we will perform a couple of Lars Hollmer/Samla Mammas Manna's songs.
Our new album is currently being manufactured so expect it to be released very soon. We will of course post some news on our myspace as soon as it is released...

Yeah, I got the mail from Stefan (Dimle) last friday, including this poster:
And, if anyone's interested, here's a copy of that email:
Saturday the 20th of March is it time for our yearly
LASSE HOLLMER TRIBUTE NIGHT
Venue: TEATER 3 at Rosenlundsgatan 3 (subway: Mariatorget) in Stockholm.
We are very proud to present a really strong line-up this year.
RUINS (Japan):
Tatsuya Yoshida was the last drummer with Samla Mammas Manna.
He is the lealding force among avant-gard and free-jazz drummers in Japan
KLOTET (Uppsala):
Wonderful band from Uppsala.(also the home town of Lars Hollmer) Klotet will perform material from both their albums but also their versions of some Hollmer compositions.
The roots of their musical inspiration comes from band such as Fläsket Brinner and Samla Mammas Manna.
YRA (Sweden/Japan):
This is what we can call a Swedish/Japanese version of Ruins. Tatsuya Yoshida, Ulf "Rockis" Ivarsson and Coste Apetrea will perform classic Hollmer compositions and unique versions of Tatsuya Yoshida´s music.
MATS & MORGAN BAND (Sweden):
Just as on our previous “Hollmer-festival” last year so is Mats & Morgan the headliners! They will present a smorgasbord of Lars Hollmer´s music and their own outbursting music. Gustaf Hielm on electric bass and be preperd for various guests!!!.
Would love to be there!
