Danko Jones live 2013

On the back of another hugely successful summer festival run with stops all over Europe, we are proud to announce that Danko Jones will be coming back to the Nordics this fall for no less than seventeen dates. Danko who recently were rewarded with their first gold record with the track “Had Enough” will head out to play cities that few international bands take the time to do, giving crowds all over Scandinavia a chance to see them live and proving that they are one of the best live bands in the world.

The band is currently touring North America as part of the Uproar Festival alongside the likes of Alice In Chains, Jane’s Addiction and Coheed and Cambria and can also be heard in the newly premiered blockbuster movie Kick-Ass 2 where their classic song “Dance” is the soundtrack to one of the film’s more significant scenes.

Navid Modiri & Gudarna tillbaka med nytt album och turné

Den 18/9 släpper Navid Modiri & Gudarna sitt mycket efterlängtade album ”Ska du verkligen skjuta ner månen med den där?” – deras första fullängdare sen 2008.

Efter tre album och idoga turnerande bestämde sig bandet under 2009 att det var dags för en paus. Navid blev pappa. Povel åkte runt jorden och spelade med Robyn. Kristofer startade en egen studio. Christian spelade i Palestina. Conrad släppte en soloskiva och Jacob startade en webbyrå.

Det var inte förrän inför Ung Cancers fest i december 2012 som bandet återförenades för att göra en spelning. Inför spelningen låste bandmedlemmarna in sig i studion för att repa in sina gamla låtar. Istället för att komma ut välrepade kom de ut välrepade och med 14 nya låtar. Ett första smakprov kom i våras i form av singeln ”Någon håll i mig” och om ett par dagar släpps singel nummer två i form av ”Det är inte lätt”.

För att fira albumsläppet kommer bandet göra ett fåtal exklusiva releasefester i början av oktober för att sedan fylla på schemat senare i höst och under nästa år.

4/10 – Lund, Mejeriet (Biljetter)
10/10 – Göteborg, Musikens Hus (Biljetter)
12/10 – Stockholm, Kulturhuset (Studion) (Biljetter släpps på 22/8)

Danko Jones featured in Kick-Ass 2

Friday the 16th sees the official premiere of Kick-Ass 2 and with a cast including Jim Carrey this time around it is predicted to be an even bigger success than the much heralded first movie.

It is with great pride we can now announce that one of the most significant scenes in the film is played out to the sound of the classic Danko Jones song “Dance” – off their 2003 album “We Sweat Blood”. This follows a long line of prominent placements for the band – including songs featured in True Blood, CSI:NY and EA Sports NHL 2011 to name a few.

Needless to say, the song is also included on the movie’s official soundtrack and was also the musical theme of the film’s first trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ekram9md95k

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis to Ericsson Globe

We can now happily announce that the Macklemore & Ryan Lewis show at Annexet in Stockholm, Sweden on October 4th will move up to Ericsson Globe (on the same date). Since the tickets ran out a few weeks ago the demand has gotten bigger and bigger and now we can finally release more tickets to what will be the show of the year!

Thrift Shop, Can’t Hold Us and Same Love still rotate on radio all over the world and after their fantastic performance at Bråvalla earlier this summer we are expecting nothing less than a love fest. Their fame does not seem to subside and they are selling out arenas in Europe as well as in the US; Macklemore himself is on the cover on the latest addition of the prestigious Rolling Stone Magazine.

The show is presented together with Kulturbolaget and NRJ. Tickets will be released tomorrow (16/8) at 09.00 here: www.ticnet.se/event/284977
