Peter Bjorn and John + Friska Viljor

Peter Bjorn and John

Peter and Bjorn met as teenagers and in 1999 they met John. 'Since then it's been hundreds of gigs, 2 albums, many EPs and singles, lots of love and lots of fussing and fighting.' With the recent release of their third album, Writer's Block, the band are starting to attract a significant following outside their native Sweden. With the dreamy 'Young Folk' a summer anthem-in-the-making, tickets for this off-kilter pop trio are likely to become increasingly sought after. Expect to hear a varied set ranging from lively Simon-and-Garfunkel-style folk through to the kind of laid-back pop we've come to expect from Scandinavian bands like The Cardigans and The Wannadies.
