PREMIERE: PRINCE OF SWEDEN ‘LIVE FROM A DARK ROOM’
Underlining melodies guiding through the dynamic guitar strumming. Melting in Prince of Sweden’s contemplative vocal, drifting along the afterheat of reverb, Live From a Dark Room invites you to the unique singer-songwriter soundscape where the magic of folk is reserved.
Traveling between solitude, campfire, nature, storytelling, and warmth with a rocker spirit, Prince of Sweden captivates thoughts wandering in-between spaces. Recorded live from a dark room at Prince of Sweden’s friend's house, the debut EP Live From a Dark Room consists of four songs where the time is still.
“If You Speak to Her, Tell Her Thanks for Me” is a tender tune revolving around unsaid words. The rendition of the traditional folk song “Bury Me Not On The Lone Prairie” has a blues twist in its deep, shivering guitar motif. The vocal-led “Henrietta on My Mind” brings a brighter color to the collection with lighthearted accompaniment.
Influenced by the 60s infused rock n roll of the Arctic Monkeys and the slow folk ballads of Leonard Cohen, the British solo act Prince of Sweden explores introspective lyrics surrounded by a folk guitar soundscape with a rock edge.
