'In the Midst of Your Drama', the compelling new album by The Grand Opening is by far singer and songwriter John Roger Olsson’s strongest work to date.

While on previous albums the focus for JRO has been to combine and integrate acoustic pop songs with ambient landscapes. This third outing shows a new side of TGO. There is a real band feel to the recording. Rich instrumentation, strong choruses, and beautiful backing vocals by Jens Pettersson and Anna Ödlund.

TGO creates a sonic environment truly their own. A feeling sustained by sounds that couldn’t convey more beauty. And on top of it all, the warm vocals of JRO.

'In the Midst of Your Drama' was produced and recorded by JRO with help from long time collaborator Jens Pettersson and the rest of the band. The recordings took place at JRO’s very own Möre Studio in Stockholm, Sweden during 2009 and mixed by Christoffer Roth (Caesars, Moneybrother, Britta Persson) early 2010 at Dubious Studio, Stockholm.

Supporting the release of ‘In the Midst of Your Drama’ The Grand Opening will be touring as a four piece in February 2011.
