Ladies and gentlemen all the way from Sweden! The Loveflowers

Light acoustic melodies and harmonies, wonderful tunes inspiring young and old, come see them here at Big Sandy Music Hall! Here’s a little info we found on their website!

In september 2006, Michael and Leif met at a local demostudio. They started to talk about music and their influences. Leif had a tune which he started to play on the guitar and Michael felt that this was something he could relate to and the tune sounded just like his own ideas. In twenty minutes they had the idea on tape and they also tried to find some lyrics that was appropriate to the motion and feeling of the tune.
Yvonne Greiffe had poems which she had written long ago. She wrote the main part of them in according to things she had gone trough in life. Her lyrics is very personal and they fitted well to the song.

And that is still what they are doing – finding new ideas – turning them into songs – recording and having a lot of fun in the studio.

Leif Thörner and Michael Greiffe are the songwriters, arrangers and producers of two albums with Loveflowers. The first album “Loveflowers”, was relased in october 2008. It contains ten songs, and it is an unusual album, because there are five songs with swedish lyrics and five more songs with english lyrics. Bands do not usually mix texts in different languages ​​on the same album, so this is not so common.

The second album, “Bridge or Barrier” took a while to finish, but in september 2013 the world was ready to meet Loveflowers development. Now was a major promotional campaign in europe and Scandinavia. It got many good reviews thanks to good promotional company and many newspapers wrote nice articles about the band and the music. The songs were also played on many radiostations throughout europe.

In august 2014, Loveflowers was invited to participate in “Texas Sounds International Country Music Awards” in Jefferson, Texas. The band performed and had a great time in Texas and a week later they got this amazing award “Best Songwriters of the Year”!!!

Big Sandy Music Hall is proud to announce the following show! Zion Spencer came to us first on our Singer Songwriter stage. We were so impressed by his ability to connect with the audience, and with his flavor of original music,  we had him back. Come see Zion Spencer a third time, and get a double treat as the band Profetic..Calaveras….Sorry for the dots, the incorrect spelling messed with my writing program!

As intended, Alex Ruiz mentions that spelling it incorrectly insinuates that is spelled wrong in both English and Spanish… This group has some tasty grooves, and you will sure want to be here this Saturday Night SEPT 6th! Catch these guys now, because they are on their way to play a string of shows on the West Coast….and we don’t know when we will get them here again!

See you at the show! Big Sandy Music Hall!
