Katzen Kapell – Alla Hatar Min Man (Sweden-1998) [Avant-Prog] @256

Katzen Kapell is nothing but one of Sweden’s most original and unusual bands.
When the musicians come together they create a sound that transports the listeners to unimaginable musical realms. Their original compositions evoke suburbia melancholy, oriental romance and the Rounding of the Belly in a tango. Every instrument and sound that you could never imagine in combination, comes alive when the band plays their first notes and instills a dual sense of comedy and boldness.

The unusual combination of instruments certainly creates a truly original sound. Catharina Backman Accordion and vocals, Eva Lindal violin, Magnus Andersson organ, wurlitzer and vocals Kjell Nordeson marimba and vibraphone, Lasse Lundbom drums and percussion, Gustaf Hielm bass.

Katzen Kapell have toured in Sweden and given concerts in Netherland and Belgium.
