The Late Call – In-store @ 1pm this Saturday 9th April

Brought to you by that man Bart from eagleowl we have some acoustic / folk / pop from Stockholm this Saturday as a taster for the gig the following day at the Wee Red Bar. Hot on the heels of the visit from our Estonian friends even if they were just shopping. More info courtesy of the Swedesplease blog.

I’m really supposed to be previewing the Swedes at SXSW. But when I heard about this debut record from The Late Call being put out by the very fine German label Tapete everything else was put on the back burner.

The Late Call is really just one guy (+friends) from Stockholm named Johannes Maye. His debut record is called Leaving Notesand chronicles the long distance relationship he had with his girlfriend. The record and this song has an organic feel on account of the mostly acoustic instrumentation. He’s joined by Andreas Söderström (ASS, RUBIES, TAKEN BY TREES), Elias Åkesson (Stockholm’s ELIAS & THE WIZZKIDS), BJÖRN KLEINHENZ and Henrik Roger (GHOST OF TOM JOAD).
