Concert: "A Tribute to Bob Dylan"

Björn Erixon, Swinging Doors member and well known music profile in Luleå, has initiated a project, setting out to take the icon Bob Dylan down off the wall and put his work in a new musical framework. Think what you want about Dylan, but this man's music and lyrics have inspired, and will continue to inspire, generations of musicians.
The band includes five musicians from Swinging Doors.

Swinging Doors' musicians at Luleå Kalaset

Pretty much all of Swinging Doors joined the festival band "Svartöns Allstars" for the local festival Luleå Kalaset.

Back from our Texas gigs!

We're completely in love with Texas - The weloming we got was amazing, and the Texas audience sure knows their stuff.
We visited places like Joe's Ice Bar in San Antonio and Saxon's Pub in Austin, where we had the pleasure of meeting some really cool people.
At one gig, we played the Swedish song "Ko över Sarek" ("Cow over Sarek"), which is written by a Finish musician now living in the U.S, and the wonderful audience gave it standing ovations! (And rightly so, we think.)

With love /SD

The deal is sealed!

The Swinging Doors are headed for the U.S. More specifically, we'll be arriving in Austin, Texas on may 7th.
Our plans are to play some music and gather inspiration for future projects.  We look forward to learning "the American way of playing country music" and we are very exited about introducing the amazing Austin music scene to the bandmembers who have yet to experience it.
Of course the trip would not be complete without a Sunday Brunch at Fonda San Miguel and a visit to Taylor's bar.

Swinging Doors goes west

Swinging Doors is heading for the U.S! In May 2009 we'll be packing our bags for one of our all time favourite hang-outs; Austin TX. (This time via NYC!) We're hoping for great gigs and inspiring meetings with American musicians.
Hopefully we'll also get time to have Sunday Brunch at Fonda San Miguel in Austin, which is possibly the best food experience ever. Not to mention their Marguerithas...!  /SD
