Album Notes

Daniel Norgren is one of the really interesting and inventive artists on the Swedish underground-scene today.
Onstage he’s often all by himself with his one-man band on drums, percussion, guitar, harmonica, kazoo and vocals (you know Bob Log III-stile).

He takes the sounds deeply rooted in the old pre-war blues and jazz like Son House Blind Willie Johnson Fats Waller and so on…and the early gospel and folksongs and mixes it up with fragile ballads, coarse rockabilly and a bunch of real lyrics and performs it with a TOTAL FEELING on and offstage.
-Total feeling, it's what it’s all about…

His debut album “Kerosene dream” was an experiment with himself behind all the instruments (almost everything homemade) and harsh noisemaking. It was put by some of the Swedish music-magazines and critics among the very best Swedish records of the year (2007), often compared with Tom Waits and Daniel Johnston.

His second album “Outskirt” was released in April 2008.
It has got a bigger influence then Kerosene dreams.
It was recorded with a constellation of great musicians from other bands like Kamchatka, Andra Generationen, Rambling Nicholas Heron…
“Outskirt” is a raw mind-rinsing bizarre blues from the outskirts.
