It's been a while. We wrote, recorded and mastered this album about two years ago in the distant countryside of Sweden. Unfortunately different plans were made about life and the record have just been sitting waiting to be heard.
When we made the songs we all felt that a playful process was due and the songs just basically flowed out effortless and smooth. Our attitude towards swedish/nordic folkmusic mattered but in a sense that it played a background role in our writing, making its presence noticed way later in the process. We also tried to make this a dynamic record, not flirting to much with the stereotypical post-rock influences, but still have a romance with sharp contrasts between the dark, heavy parts and the lighter flowing parts. This is a genuine piece for us, not trying to make something that pleased others, but rather a statement of our love for music. It's supposed to be fun, and it is!
Well, we hope you like this record as much as we do.

Love,
Bluebridge Quartet
