SHOOTING JOHN balances on the verge between americana and indie flavored
folk and pop/rock. On their recently recorded studio album, HAPPINESS +/-,
the six piece Swedish act delivers melodies of sadness and joy with
honesty and intensity, favoring the mellowness of the minor keys but not
without a hint of hope. The dark, melancholic voice of singer Peder
Gravlund contrasts beautifully to the frail singing of Helena Arlock, all
framed by well balanced arrangements and melodies as well as thoughtful
lyrics.
Their 2005 release, MOODSWINGS, brought great critical response, tv- and
radio appearances as well as tour dates in Germany, England and Sweden.
2007 they released their second album Happiness +/- and played a bunch of shows in Scandinavia and the U.S. Coming up is a release for Happiness +/- including bonustracks in Germany, Austria and Switzerland in August 2008 followed by a tour in september/october.

Hi Shooting John, a very warm welcome.. FRIEND VOTE is the place for Artists with Friends, not fans. It's a page where you can find the very best music on Myspace by Artists that actually communicate with the people that take the time to comment on their pages. To join in, all you need to do is ask your friends to vote for one of your songs, if you get enough votes you appear in the chart, if you appear in the chart you will get more friends, if you get to No.1 your page views and song plays will increase significantly! All the best, hope to see you in the chart soon. Keith@FV. http://www.myspace.com/indietop100 http://www.twitter.com/indietop100
