ALPACA SPORTS - AS LONG AS I HAVE YOU 7" (CLOUDBERRY RECORDS [CLOUDBERRY 1029], 2013) [SWE]

Alpaca Sports - As Long As I Have You 7"

(Cloudberry Records – [Cloudberry 1029], 2013) [SWE]

Maybe because it's the wintertime, but I find myself listening to a ton of indie pop from Sweden this week. The indie pop that comes out of that Scandanavian country somehow is always bright and sunny to me -- not cold. This Alpaca Sports 7" single is no exception! Released on Cloudberry Records [USA] in 2013.

THE PERSUADERS - FIRST DATE 3P 7" (CEILIDH PRODUCTIONS [CEI 011], 1989) [SWE]

The Persuaders - First Date 3P 7"

(Ceilidh Productions – [CEI 011], 1989) [SWE]

A cool 80s Swedish indie pop group The Persuaders with a classic sounding 7" single from 1989 that sounds very poppy and radio friendly that could have been a hit -- if it were not released in Sweden on a Swedish label and perhaps had been released in England.
