by

Grand Pop Station.Grand Pop Station is a new Swedish band with Staffan Öfwerman on the lead vocals (who used to be in the Roxette band between 1988–1993, appearing on Look Sharp, Join the Joyride tour and also on several other recordings. He did his final live performance with Roxette on MTV Unplugged.

This is Staffan’s new band with 4 other great musicians from Sweden playing their own music. Most of the songs are written by Staffan and the music is pop that the band hope will be loved by the most people.

The band just released their debut single, Daddys little boy as a digital download on iTunes in November 2009. The track ended up on Top 30 over the best selling songs on iTunes Store on the first day.

The band is right now in the studio working on more songs, which will be released in 2010 if people like their first single. There is also a brand new web site on it’s way and the first part of it is now open, but a lot of things are happening behind the scenes. Take a look and register yourself to the club (it’s free). Then you will have access to the complete web site when it is launched.

Party crasher: review on AllMusic.com & Canadian release

by

We were informed that AllMusic.com published quite favourable review of Gessle “Party crasher”. Suprisingly, the album seems to be released in Canada on Sony BMG Music lable. We do not know if it is the same version as it was published in United Kingdom or is it something different.

NOTP tour: Live album in production

by

Night of the Proms 2009.As tour producer Jan Vereecke writes on his blog, they have been busy with mixing of the tracks for the German NOTP CD in the last days. The master is now on it’s way into production. They want the CD to be on sale at the German shows themselves, that means from November 27 – the first show in Hamburg. On Monday they had the approval of almost all the included artists: Roxette’s mix was ready, Heaven 17 and Christina Stürmer (recorded at their rehearsals in Antwerp) had been done earlier, John Miles still wanted a few minor changes and Alan Parsons mixed his recordings from Benidorm (Spain) of last year.

The tracklist is still unknown at this point. You can buy the CD at the concerts or order at amazon.de.
