Continuously writing Lo-Fi anthems and performing live to a trusty fan-base, indie-rock band Smashed Songs has since the mid-2000s released a number of EPs and two full length Albums, in various formats and forums. Embracing Hooky-ish melodic chorus bass and kraut pop rhythms, as well as Americana-flavoured guitars and bittersweet vocals in the stern tradition of Neil Young and Dinosaur Jr, Smashed Songs pearls such as "Five Horses" (2007), live classic "The Shooter" (2011) and the freshly recorded "Reading Books" (2019) bridges the gap between British New wave Pop and American Lo-Fi Rock.
 
Smashed Songs is based in Stockholm, Sweden, although originally formed in the small town of Nyköping where the band arose in the ashes of 1990s art-rock band the Druids and other local alternative rock acts. The line-up of Smashed Songs has varied some over the years, but since 2010 the band is a six-piece with Martin Nordlöf assuming Vocal duties and Guitar, Sven Granath playing Guitars, Johan Öberg playing Bass, Mats Wahlqvist banging Drums, Mathias Kågebrand exploring Keyboards and Anders Ljung adding Baryton Bas, Melodica and various stuff.

PREYBIRD composes highly personal music influenced by jazz tradition interwoven with electronica and an experimental touch. 

With the fearless spirit of an explorer and a digital approach to the acoustic he digs deep and hits the roots of popular music deep down. An organic semi-improvised electroacoustical foliage branches out somewhere in limbo between the real and the binary. 

But despite these imaginative descriptions the ambition is to get an emotional resonance in the heart.

Imagine Squarepushers playfulness in conjunction  with the sound of Miles Davis  and the mosaic phantasies of  Amon Tobins plus a dose of Aphex Twin.

PLEASE DON'T LISTEN TO THESE SONGS. NEW ONES COMING SOON.
