Bio:
Band saw the day of light in 2013 as the solo project by Swedish guitarist Andrée Theander.The debut album was called ”Strange Nostalgia” quickly became a fan favorite among AOR listeners around the globe. This was the first release of original music by the guitarist since the self-released EP ”Influence Grind” by his prog rock band Cap Outrun in 2008, a band who many years later reshaped and made the full-length album ”High on Deception” in 2021.For the next album, “Wonderful Anticipation” (2016), Theander recruited a great line-up of rock musicians from Sweden, he either knew personally or who had impressed him with their previous work, such as the amazing vocalists Göran Edman and Christian Eriksson and drummer Herman Furin of Work Of Art. This album was leaning a bit more to the modern melodic rock sound compared to the slightly more classic west coast sounding debut. It also showcased the Swede’s love for more blues based rock and instrumental music. This time Christian shared the vocal duties with Christoffer Särnefält and Theander himself.Since then there have been two solo releases under his own name, as well as an album with the funk/rock band Clouds Of Clarity (Superficial Society, 2022) as well as the aforementioned work with Cap Outrun.
Album:
