Weeping Willows

The Weeping Willows released their debut album in 1997 and were quickly from the growing desire for country in Sweden. But unlike the rings that could lead the real country revival a couple of years later on — for instance Alimony — they hardly ever really performed nation, but a unusual brew of different sentimental American designs. The result is sentimental rock and roll with solid string and horn plans. Their debut recording sold perfectly, and through a whole lot of airplay, they quickly reached countrywide popularity. In 1993, vocalist Magnus Carlson and percussionist Thomas Sundgren performed nation and rockabilly addresses and were asked by users of Stefan Sundström’s music group Apache to try out with them. In 1994, the task was called Weeping Willows but was only a side task, now playing addresses of Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, and very similar artists. The arriving years had been spent doing membership gigs in Stockholm and recruiting a seventh member, guitarist Nico Röhlcke. The various other members from the music group had been drummer Anders Hernestam, bassist Stefan Axelsen, guitarist Ola Nyström, and pianist Mats Hedén. In 1997, they finally released an record with original music, Broken Guarantee Property, which quickly reached a huge audience, also offering well in Norway and Germany. The timing was ideal since in the middle-’90s country acquired began to be a satisfactory genre in Sweden, after getting scorned at for nearly 2 decades. The Weeping Willows, using their incredibly sentimental music, suit properly into this, also if the rock and roll ballads they performed only acquired streaks of nation, leaning even more on entertainment music. That Elvis may be the number one impact is easy to listen to when you pay attention to Magnus Carlson’s performing. However the music design isn’t as conveniently defined and will take as very much from ’50s rock and roll as in the past due ’60s and early ’70s, including everything that’s supposed to cause you to cry. Until liberating the next recording in 1999, the music group managed to maintain their recognition by touring celebrations, making looks on various Television shows (the revival of the practice therefore old-fashioned matched up the band’s music and appearance inside a funny method), and taking part in the film Under Solen. When Endless Night time premiered in 1999, the objectives were high and the recording quickly increased to the very best from the charts. However the overpowering essential acclaim the 1st recording had received had not been granted the follower. And regardless of offering well, Endless Night time did not keep anything close to the impression Broken Guarantee Land had completed, and soon vanished through the charts and ceased being performed on radio. In 2001, Magnus Carlson produced his single debut with Allt Är Bara Du Du Du.
