I'm From Barcelona @ Concorde 2
Published 9th Jul 2007 by Sarah

The band that delivered the world with one of the most epic pop songs in 2006, We're From Barcelona, had a strange baptism into the world of music. Emanuel Lundgren writes a couple of explosive happy pop songs and decides to gather all his friends to put them on tape.

His apartment turns into a friendly factory as people come and go loaded with banjos, accordions and kazoos, and the 29 people that made the resulting EP gather for a one off live show. But what seemed like the end was really the beginning, as the media picked up the Swedish band and propelled them into the mainstream, resulting in an album packed with euphoric pop gems and sing-a-long friendly choruses. A true spectacle, when they're live it´s hard to say where the band ends and the audience begins + support.
