SWEET WATER PIRATES IS NO MORE. JON AND STELLAN FORMED A NEW GROUP CALLED "TURN OFF YOUR TELEVISION"



Sweet Water Pirates is a band located in Malmo, Sweden. We love music as much as we love small lakes. Jon sings and plays the guitar/ukulele while Stellan plays the bass. Frans is hammering the drums and Jocke, the saxofon jazzman, plays the electric guitar and sings the ohhhhhh parts. When we are in luck our beloved Karin, well known from such songs as "I'm a butterfly" and "Do you still need me?", plays sweet sweet notes on the "piano" as well as other small instruments.



This is what Meadowmusic.se wrote about our music:



To me, one of the best pop albums last year, was Jon Rinneby’s “I’m In a Sideshow”. A collection of irrestistable pop songs with a nice indie touch to them. With these songs in his luggage Jon traveled on and created the band Sweet Water Pirates, continuing his pop odyssée.



Even if they haven’t released a full album yet, there is a collection of tracks to listen to on Sweet Water Pirate’s site and on their Myspace page. And if I compare with the earlier recordings, it feels a little bit different here.



The unmistakingly good feeling for nice pop melodies is there, but it sounds less indie and more retro. I find influences from folk, country, Beatles and more. Quite some variation, and it’ll be very interesting to see what they will come up with next.
