Alternative pop act alibi tom from Gothenburg, Sweden digs deeper with new album “this sleeping”. Their unique music, generated by colliding classical counterpoint compositions with jam-session improvisation, has been recorded live in old rural churches. This made for a living, breathing pop sound, adorned with harmonies and unexpected instrumental elements. Let’s call it playful seriousness – or the concept of making music being intimate yet big, dramatic yet contemplative and melancholic yet “so beautiful you just don’t know what to do with yourself” –Anna Enkvist, Joyzine.se.

Erik Goranson Milton - guitar, keys, vocals
Joel Goranson -vocals, cello, bass
