| Thanks for a brilliant tour! |
Apr 27.2012 |
Hey!
We are back home in Göteborg again and the rain is as usual pissing down. Somehow, it doesn´t really bother us. How come, you may ask - isn´t heavy rain always a bit tiresome? Well, it depends, it really depends.
We´ve done 30 shows with the LLL album in our back now and it´s been a true pleasure. The ambition is to make you understand this, every night, wherever we might play - how grateful we are. The third and last leg of the LLL-tour ended this monday with a mighty roar in München, just the way you dream about. Now we´ll stay at home during May and then the festival summer starts in June.
Many of you have asked for sizes and colours of different merchandise items. It´s always a logistical Gordic knot for us to solve (especially when we´re flying as we did on the last leg) but very soon the webshop will be updated. And if you want something signed, or have something extra in mind, please just drop a line to info(a)hellsongs.com
Your wish - our command...
Thanks for taking such great care of us!

Do we have to say that the two weeks in Germany was just klasse? Probably not, you who came to see us know that already. If anyone missed us out there, we´re soon about to get our asses down to Germany/Austria again. This time the piano will be handled by Matti Ollikainen, a brilliant devildriver with a vicious groove in his fingers.
Here are the dates for the third and last leg of the Long Live Lounge tour:
17.04 - Alte Mältzerei, Regensburg DE
18.04 - PPC, Graz AT
19.04 - Haus der Musik, Wien/Vienna AT
20.04 - Sublime, Aflenz AT
21.04 - Posthof, Linz AT
22.04 - Kulturladen, Konstanz DE
23.04 - Ampere, München DE
We really can´t wait to get going again!

| The great staff from swedish P3 Live was kind enough to record our show up in Piteå, this february. The recording was aired this week and if you missed it, here it is. Public Service rules folks, never forget that! |

Ooooh, we had such a great time on the first leg of the Long Live Lounge tour. First meeting winter again in the swiss alps, then a glimpse of spring in Germany.
It was really amazing to see how many of you that came to sing and dance with us. As stated from the stage, we don´t take that for granted, not for a second. Without your love and support, there wouldn´t be a band out on the roads.
Lots of Love!

Tomorrow we´re heading down towards german ground. The swedish-german peace treaty (we swedes know it as the Westphalian peace) that was signed in 1648 will be updated by yours truly in Osnabrück. Almost 400 years ago it ended the Thirty Years´War, now it will start an era of 30 years of love.
Due to our duties as ambassadeurs and touring musicians, we´re not able to run everything at home as efficiently as usual. If you place an order between the 14th and 26th of february, please have patience. It´s perfectly cool to use the webshop, but since we´re a DIY-oriented band, we have to get our asses back home again until we can take care of it.
Hope to see you out on the roads!

| Pite rules! |
Feb 06.2012 |
Thank you, all you dear Piteåbor that showed up at Studio Acusticum. We had a most pleasant evening and would love to come back. A beautiful venue, a warm atmosphere (but really cold outdoors, brrrrr!) and a very much welcoming audience.
It´s quite easy to have a great evening with those circumstances.
We really do understand why the festival is called "... dansar & ler".
By the way. Picked up new and hand crafted posters today. They´re made by the local artist (he really deserves that title) Jonatan Sahlin. Each one unique, they come in a limited edition of 100 copies. Have a look here.
Brilliant! |

Hail to the GSO! |

| Piteå calling! |
Jan 11.2012 |
The new year has started off real nice in the Hellsongs camp. We´re going to hit Piteå and the fabulous venue Studio Acusticum on the 4th of February. We´re very exited about going way up north and hope for lots of snow and that sweet northern accent (there´s not really any snow guarantee in Göteborg...).
If you want to check out Acusticum on FB, you find them here.
