About Tobias Froberg
For many years, Swedish singer/songwriter Tobias Froberg had been a journalist writing for newspapers and magazines. He used to say he would stop writing and start making music as soon as he had interviewed the famous movie director Ingmar Bergman and Neil Young. After interviewing Bergman and going to a Neil Young concert that same day, he found he had gotten close enough and started off his musical career.Tobias Froberg’s 2004 debut ‘For Elisabeth Wherever She Is’ was nominated for a Swedish indie Grammy. Already a week after its release he started recording 2006’s ‘When The Night Turns Cold’, which was followed-up by ‘Turn Heads’ in 2008.

Friday, May 2nd, 2008
Ever since we recorded her show in Paradiso’s small hall back in 2005, we’ve all been huge fans of Ane Brun. Therefore we were thrilled that she finally came back to Amsterdam with a new album, and a new show. It turned out to be another wonderful performance. But you should really see it yourself.  

Ane Brun Bio
With her warm voice and acoustic guitar the Stockholm based Norwegian singer/songwriter Ane Brun (real name Ane Brunvoll) brings her fragile and intimate songs to life. Inspired by artists like Joni Mitchell and Ani DiFranco, Ane Brun started writing songs at the age of 21. Together with fellow musician Ellekari Larsson she founded DetErMine Records, on which she released her 2003 debut ‘Spending Time With Morgan’, followed up by ‘A Temporary Dive’ in 2005. Three years later she released the long-awaited ‘Changing Of The Seasons’.
