I'd just like to express a huge thank you to everybody who came to our shows in Germany and Switzerland on our September tour. THANK YOU! Me and the Rainaways all had such a good time and you treated us like kings

I'm working on coming back next year to do a longer tour. I'll keep you updated on that as soon as I know anything about it. So hopefully I'll see you all before long.

Take care.

First of all, sorry for the lack of updates lately. We have experienced some kind of technical issues that (hopefully) won't happen again. Again, so sorry about this. This for example should have been up months ago:

"People in Germany! And everyone else. Pre-listen to the new album.

My new album "RainawayTown" will be released in germany on June 22:nd. But now you can Pre-listen to the album here on my e-card. And if you want to you can send it to your friend who you think should hear it."

As you can see, pretty old stuff. Anyways I have a hectic period coming up with lots of gigs in Germany and Switzerland scheduled. Have a look in the tour section for more info on that.

Hope I will see some of you then.

The new album is out now! This is what my record label says about it:

"Listening to the Rainaway Town, the latest release by Kristofer Åström, one could be tempted to call this the return of this great Swedish songwriter. Kristofer being one of the most productive songwriters in Sweden this holds no truth. You only have to look through his discography to see that not a year goes by without a new album or an EP. Still this new album sounds and feels different.

This is not a quiet solo-piece like Loupita (2004) or the Black Valley EP (2005) and nothing like his great albums with Hidden Truck. THIS IS A BAND ALBUM. Every song is still as beautiful as only Kritofer makes them but the songs are performed by a strong unit. Probably the best band Kristofer has ever had.

Apart from Kristofer the crew consists of:
Nikke Ström - bass
Per "Flamman" Westling - guitar
Johan Håkansson - Drums
Johan Lindström - Piano, Pedalsteel and more.

Rainaway Town is more rock and more pop. Songs are tight, warm and straight-forward. You'll hear a very confident and more focused Kristofer . The songs still ache and are filled with longing, loneliness and despair but the man singing is a man who's never giving up.

The album was recorded at Music-A-Matic in Gothenburg, Sweden. Produced by Kristofer and mixed by Johan Lindström.

Guest appearences include Matthias Hellberg (Just A Little Insane) and the American singer/songwriter Maria Taylor (All In). Kent Norberg (It's The Way) Johanna Färjhage (Blacked Out) and more...

We at Startracks love this record and think this is one of those albums you will look back on, love and call your own."
