The Magnus Svensons are hard to pigeonhole. Originally formed in their native Sweden by Magnus A and Magnus B in 2003, the group has since grown to include members Jari (from Finland) and Olle (from Norway). Specializing in a minimal avant-pop sound, The Magnus Svensons have a strong sense of cultural identity and are a collective group of freethinking individuals. Their 8th release - following 3 double-cds, a live cd/dvd combo, an EP saluting the Games of the 2006 Winter Olympiad and 2 eps of Festive Music - was released in December of 2007.
