An announcement from A Camp

Hey, here’s a message from Nathan to all of us in North America.

A Camp is so very proud to announce the arrival of our latest album COLONIA, washing up on your mighty shores this week.

Anon we will set out on a US/ Canadian tour and fully intend to rock you. Having just wrought happy damage upon the modesty of the European public, we intend to commit the same loving cruelty on you, our gentle New World friends. Complete dates are listed below, but to give you a little preview you can view the video interview we did with SPIN Earth in the lovely city of Copenhagen.

As always we promise you blood and feathers, and are humbled by and thankful for your love and support.

Stay golden, North America; and we will see you under the hot lights soon enough.

hugs, A C A M P

The Cardigans Rise and Shine first version

When I first started to like the Cardigans as a band, everyone always talked about the first version of the Rise and Shine video.

There was a 30 second clip on a Swedish documentary back in 1997 that gave a taste of the early brilliance of the band.

It became a quest to find the full length of this video. Lots of the old school Cardigans fans were searching for this. This was back in the day before YouTube, before DVDs, when VHS tapes were traded.

I finally tracked someone down in Sweden that had 5 full VHS tapes filled with Cardigans footage. I had to convert them from PAL to NTSC, then a couple of years later was able to import them into my Macintosh. The full version of RIse and SHine was included on those VHS tapes.

Here it is for your enjoyment

Niclas Frisk from A Camp

Did you know that Niclas Frisk from A Camp also has another band called Atomic Swing?

I bought their album when I lived in Sweden in 1992. Check out one of their best songs from that album “Bossanova Swap Meet”.

Atomic Swing is still going strong, for the lastest news and information I would recommend checking out the Atomic Swing fan site.
