Desperate Romantics are a unique power pop band based in
Stockholm, Sweden.
Their music and style is a loving legacy from the 60s, 70s and 80s
with a modern
touch. The songs of Jan Leonard Borgh performed by a
group of veterans of the
Swedish rock'n'roll scene with a legacy in bands like The Moderns, Strindbergs,
JAPOP,
The Repeatles,
Neon Leon, The Pain, Scratch and more...
The name Desperate Romantics sums up both the
sound and the look of the band.
A cool mix
of the last 5 decades of rock'n'roll and the ragged and ecstatic joy of pure
being.
These veterans of Swedish guitar pop are not here to fool you but lay their
hearts on the line...
Jan Leonard Borgh — vocals, guitars, harmonica
Stefan Klingborg — drums, vocals
Peter Beckman — guitar, vocals
Gunnar Karlstein — bass
Thanks for a great gig at Vurma on April 28. The first gig where both Pete and
Jan
played their Gretsches! Next one is in Louisville, KY, with or without the
Gretsches...
