Taking a straight step forward, in a direction which has landed
worldwide recognition and a steadily growing audience, is non-other
than The Cardigans. Continuing a steady rise with their new full
length release, First Band On The Moon, and a well deserved
spot in this year's KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas, The Cardigans
will definately have a cheery holiday. Originally form Jonkoping,
Sweden, this quintet seems to keep the crowd moving with a sound
that combines unconventional jazz with a 90's flow of Swedish indie
pop. The lead vocals performed by Nina Persson, should provide an
interesting sound due to the heavy contribution she has made
lyrically on The Cardigans latest release. In the recent past,
The Cardigans completed a European tour that proved successful by
boosting album sales to over 1.5 million worldwide. With a goal
set to be "as good as The Beatles," tonight's performance is surely
expected to be one of their finest.
