Swedetastic
Apparently, the Swedish do not use serial commas.
This would account for why I thought the band Peter Björn and John were a duo. Nej! In fact, the Stockholm-based group are a trio (Peter Morén, Björn Yttling, and John Eriksson) whose neo-'60s power pop sounds are a breath of cold, crisp fjord air in the indie scene.
Dig it live at the Empty Bottle on Tuesday, May 8. And get this: they're so flippin' Swedetastic that they're playing not one but two shows that evening: 7:30 and 10 p.m. Au Revoir Simone opens the first set, and Fujiya & Miyagi open the second. Now quit making excuses and go already.
