Birds on Holiday was formed in the island of Gotland in the easter of 2006. It all starts much earlier in history though. The song writing duo made up by brother Jesper and sister Josefin go way back as a hard working comradeship. Basically they have been playing together as long as Josefin has been able to hold an instrument. Drummer Peter met Josefin and Jesper in the band My Sweet Life in 2005. Recently Robert has joined as long awaited bass player.
Birds on Holiday have recorded their debut album themselves on a couple of different occasions during 2006-2007. The first session was a five day stay in Johans house in beautiful Dalarna. We are still thankful for that J and H! The second session took place in Sollentuna Stockholm, in the aunties house - where there was a tuned piano. It was awesome to finally get Josefins piano based songs on tape. Somehow we feel that inspiration is best inside the city. Music making is better outside, where it will be quiet, so we can make some noise some noise some noise some noise.
Thank you for stopping by, love from the Birds on Holiday.
Ps. here is a clip from a show at Landet february 15 2008.
Nu har vi en Facebook-grupp!
De som är medlemmar där kommer först av alla få reda på när vi drar igång nya tävlingar, har något på gång eller har något trevligt erbjudande.
Längre fram i vår har vi även planer på att till de som är medlemmar i vår FB-grupp tipsa regelbundet om de allra hetaste gratisevenemangen inför kommande veckoslut. Då är det vi på redaktionen som plockar ut det som vi tror är de allra godaste russinen ur ”kulturkakan” och som inte bör missas.
Hej! Jag har lagt upp en ny låt och kommer lägga upp fler med några veckors mellanrum. Hoppas det finns någon i etern som tycker det är lika fint som jag! Kram Calle
