about
Forest & Crispian is a swedish band from Malmö with the bandmembers: Adam Hjertström – drums, vocals Tomas Borgström – guitar, vocals Karl-Johan Hjertström – bass-keyboard, vocals They signed with Capitol in Denmark in 2006 and played at Roskilde Festival, SPOT Festival and as support for Oh No Ono, Broken Beats and Turboweekend. The critics praised their debut 'Modern Sensation' which was released in 2007. Sounding like a weird mix of blues, pop and rock making you wanna dance, they started having a great reputation with their visual, characteristic and different lifeshows. But the partnership with Capitol didn't work out in the end, and when it was the time to release their next album, they decided to do it all by themselves. Forest and Crispian recorded and produced 'Modest Sensation' all by themselves and started out only selling it at their website, before the Danish label Slowshark Records convinced them to release the album which is much more over the edge, surreal, symphonic and a bit more gloomy than the debut album. But with the inventive instrumentation, Forest and Crispian has finally found their own sound. Right now they are working on their third record...
