Club 8

Add Date: May 11


Artist: Club 8


Album: The People's Record


Label: Self-released

Genre: Indie-pop


Comments: From AAM: "Sweden's Club 8 is commonly recognized for their personal blend of melancholic, dreamy and irresistibly catchy style of pop that has been a forerunner for bands like Camera Obscura, jj, and Kings of Convenience. The People's Record marks the beginning of a new era. Club 8 travelled to Brazil for inspiration, bought records made in the 70's in Western Africa, used a percussion player from Cuba...the result is a unique mix of Swedish pop melodies and African rhythms that are undoubtedly one of the most unique, captivating and catchiest pop records of the year".


Bright Swedish pop meets global rhythms to create upbeat, layered pop music, with light and airy vocals complimented by rich instrumental textures. Try tracks 1, 3, and 6.
