My Brother the Wind

Swedish outfit MY BROTHER THE WIND consists of Nicklas Barker (of Anekdoten fame), Mathias Danielsson (Makajodama, formerly of Gösta Berlings Saga), Ronny Eriksson (Magnolia) and Tomas Eriksson. The foursome were not too familiar with each other when their debut effort was recorded at a concert held in May 2009. The venue for the occasion was Drop Out in the Swedish city of Åmål, the latter a small place that made it's name in the history books following the Swedish motion picture Fucking Åmål, a movie about teenagers living in a place where nothing ever happens.

It's safe to state that something indeed has happened in the city by now though, and the recording of 'Twilight in the Crystal Cabinet' is certainly one event worth noting. In the spirit of improvisation the album as such was actually finished the day after the concert, and have awaited release ever since. And in the summer of 2010 Swedish label Transubstans Records finalized this adventure by releasing the album.
