Ohsergio pushes the boundaries of folk music with a subtle blend of simple melodies, layered vocals, and experimental sounds.

Jackson Browne is not only a pivotal figure in the artistic history of Elektra/Asylum – remaining with the label for a remarkable 30 years – but the very existence of Asylum Records was a direct result of his exceptional talent. When artist manager David Geffen was initially unsuccessful in securing a recording deal for the L.A.-based singer/songwriter, he turned to his mentor, Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun – who suggested that if he truly believed in Browne, he should start his own label as a joint venture with Atlantic. Founded in 1971, Asylum’s earliest releases included Browne’s self-titled debut (1972), followed by For Everyman (1973) and Late For The Sky (1974).
Meanwhile, at the urging of Elektra’s departing founder Jac Holzman, Warner Communications turned to Geffen to lead Elektra, and Browne – along with his friends the Eagles and Linda Ronstadt – became part of the newly merged Elektra/Asylum. It was a fitting turn of events, since Browne’s links with Elektra went back half a dozen years. In 1967, he had signed a publishing deal with Nina Music, a division of Elektra named after Holzman’s then-wife. Browne’s songs were recorded by such artists as Tom Rush and then-girlfriend Nico, and during a brief stint in New York he played in Tim Buckley’s backing band.

Although Browne’s first three albums had been critically acclaimed and commercially successful, he was still not selling as many records as Elektra thought he could. In 1976, it was The Pretender that finally brought Jackson to a wider, deeper audience, with the title track and “Here Come Those Tears Again” among the highlights. Jackson’s introspective examinations of life “caught between the longing for love and the struggle for the legal tender” resonated everywhere. His next release, the 7-times platinum Running on Empty (1977) became his best-selling album, and his role as an iconic artist of his generation was forever cemented. Browne remained with the label until 2002, having charted a rare three-decade career with the first label that had signed him.

Passport to Stockholm formed in 2013 around the talents of songwriters Chris 'Barny' Barnard and Tom Piggott, old friends who had previously been playing and recording as an acoustic duo. After completing their lineup with cellist Mariona De Lamo and percussionist Henri Grimes, they began developing a sound that blended indie folk and classical elements with bold, Coldplay-esque melodies. 

After successfully crowd-funding their first EP, things began moving quickly for the band as they received plenty of support in London and embarked on a couple of European tours. Their debut EP, All at Once, was released in August 2015, making waves on both sides of the Atlantic. Then sadly Tom and Mariona both had to take extended breaks from the band for personal reasons. During that time Barny and Henri continued to widen their musical horizons with Barny collaborating with Italian Trance DJ legend Mauro Picotto on a number of tracks, with their track ‘Ayala’ earning them a No.1 in Mexico. Henri went on to form the highly influential Breakcore band “Big Lad” which still plays to

In 2017 Barny and Henri reformed one again as PTS with new guitarist, Telmo Seixas for a 10 date UK tour as well as a run of European dates before finally calling time on the band indefinitely. That was until the Summer of 2019…after Barny had returned from a solo West coast tour of the US, the band reformed as a 5 piece for the first time and played out their final shows with a sold out residency at their home from home, The Troubadour in Earl’s Court, London
