  • Invitation II Dig

    SMILCD7108

    Artist: IUBAR

    Label: Smilodon

    IUBAR from small town Gävle in the North of Sweden have created a musical hybrid of their own, sharing the heartbeats and blood circulation of Kula Shaker, Doors, as well as early U2, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin.

    IUBAR did their live debut at the Hayal Kahvesi Club in Istanbul late 2003, and their debut album Invitation II Dig carry influences from their musical meetings in Turkey that winter.

    IUBAR was founded by guitarist Steven Kautzky Andersson and the eccentric singer Victor Björklund.

    Their songwriting brings a unique combination of ethereal pop melodies embedded in a sound of traditional Swedish and Oriental folk tones, electrified with rock n’ roll.

    Steven Kautzky Andersson has previously been Grammis-nominated for his solo albums under the name GIPSY POWER, released on major labels. He has also studied the Arabic string instrument Tar under one of the great masters, Ali Shakouri from Iran.

    IUBAR is something else. You need to experience it.
