Josef och Erika has, during a couple of years, toured mostly in Sweden but also in other Scandinavian contries, Germany and New York. Their music is influenced by both singer/songwriter and modern improvised music. Somewhere between these genres they've created music where stories are in focus, framed by minimalistic arrangements including backing vocals, hand claps, harmonium and elements of live electronics. Josef och Erika was formed in 2001 in Gothenburg but today they're both living and working in Stockholm, touring Sweden and abroad with a bunch of different bands User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
