Description
RYDHOLM SÄFSUND is the brainchild of two Swedish AOR/West Coast musicians Anders Rydholm (bass, rhythm guitars, keyboards; Art Of Illusion & Grand Illusion) and Lars Säfsund (vocals; Work Of Art, Art Of Illusion)!
After 5 pre-release singles, the Swedish duo will release the full-length debut album "Kaleidoscope" on CD on April 12, 2024!
With numerous top-class guests such as Tim Pierce (guitars), Robert Säll (guitars), Matt Bissonette (bass), Chuck Findley (trumpet) and Wojtek Goral (sax) among others, this release brilliantly shows their new sound, which also includes some new elements contains:
The band comments: "Some people are wondering why we chose a new name, Rydholm and Säfsund, for the release of the upcoming songs, and the reason is that the new music comes with a slight change of direction for this album. Not like that heavy like the Art of Illusion songs and more funky. There's even horns. It's so hard to describe the music but if we try it's a mix of melodic rock, west coast and a bit of pop. We hope simply that the new music is evaluated on its own terms and for what it is. It's so easy to compare it to our old stuff, but as a signal that it's intentionally different, we've decided to put it under releasing our name instead of using Art of Illusion. That doesn't mean we'll stop making melodic rock or love it any less. This album is just another exploration of our musical passion and an attempt to grow as musicians and songwriters . It was also a lot of fun because they're great and really groovy songs with tons of melodies."
