Lirarna

Music was not high on my priority list in 1974, I was about to finish my studies and had plans for a calmer occupation. But it didn't happen that way.

 

Stefan (Steffe) Szwonder and Kenta Szwonder had the band "Lirarna" but it was currently not active.

Steffe and myself were neighbours and we started to hang around and talk about our common interest, music.

 

Steffe had lots of new composed music that we started playing with and after a while this was our main occupation.

Steffe’s brother Kenta also got involved and six months later we signed a recording contract with AB Electra Record Company.

Peter Lindroth was an old member of "Lirarna" and he quickly rejoined the band. He could immediately contribute with new music material to fill up the rest of a record.

The next 3 years we were spending our day time in a touring bus around Sweden and in the nights we played our music.

We made another LP named "Högt spel" and the song "Om bara om inte fanns" got us on the Swedish music chart, "Svensktoppen".

By the end of 1975 we signed a new record contract for two LPs with EMI record company.

Unfortunately, we never completed this contract ... but that is another story.
