The plan was simple. Let’s record an album together in a big room IRL. Let all the instruments blend, let all the personalities swing in time, let the songs be created and let it be live and direct! And here we are, in the big room. With all the microphones, wires, headphones, instruments, amplifiers, and some refreshments in the little kitchen in the corner.

In the corner behind all the drums, Peter Hjerpe. On his side the bass man Clas Lassbo with two Fenders and a Upright bass. Behind all the recording gear, the mixer, the piano/organ, and the accordion standing with his mandolin in hand – Pelle Andersson the composer. Guitarist extraordnaire Jonas Lönngren is sitting behind his immense pedal board with a couple of Fenders, a barytone and an acoustic guitar. He is checking his head phones ’cause his amplifier is standing in a cupboard out in the kitchen. Jesper Lindberg is sitting behind his pedal steel guitar with his 5-string banjo whithin reach. He has his amplifier miked up out in the toilet.

And behind the microphone the master of ceremonies, The Frontman, Martin Frontman Andersson. With two acoustic guitars, one used as a stand for his hat. He sings the songs of the Ballroom Band; songs of drifting, longing, loving and living. Songs from the heart of everything from the road to the sky. On the last day the great Linda Ström came by and blessed the session on the track ”Hard Times”. Now the album was complete .
