The monthly series where we pick out a handful of fun gigs and such happening around the sound. Mostly in Malmö and Lund, but also in Copenhagen and maybe even further? That is if we think that it’s something worth giving a mention. Did we miss anything? TELL US!
We’re back! OOPS! Looks like we might’ve missed september… It’s been a few messy months. Either way, it’s cold now! Take shelter in one of these venues at any of these events for a #certified warm good time, hopefully.

Terra Lightfoot Trio (Medley) at times pretty sick canadian altrock with a little twang & harmonies and kind of fun guitars and stuff at times, “no hurry” might be a banger – ok maybe at times slightly too folky and rawky and kind of blues:y but overall very pleasantly surprised with this one, see it kind of pays off to go through all of these shows apparently

Elias Ronnenfelt (Plan B) the coolest dane; frontman of Iceage doing his solo hip indie stuff – very pleasant catchy tunes, very cool uh very swag uh very sexy kind of lofi songs, sort of the antithesis of the rocking Iceage musically, still has that swagger tho – supposedly also releasing an album the day of
