Lydia Bio
The five guys that would eventually form Lydia all grew up in the same sleepy little town in Sweden, listening to bands like Motley Cre, Guns n Roses and Poison.
After playing together in several Swedish hard rock bands during the 90s, Henka, Adda, Per and DB formed the old-school rock band The New Breed and played together with Swedish bands such as Mando Diao, Hellacopters and Kent.
Late in 2002, the band decided to take things in a new direction. Gone were the fast hard-rock tracks that up till then had been their signature. Instead they created songs with more emotion and color, taking a more diverse approach to the rock and pop genres.
Early in 2003, their old friend and former hip hop drummer Jonsson became the bands new drummer. Per took the bass guitar and there they were.
The new Swedish pop/rock band Lydia was born.
With a focus on melodic tunes, emotional lyrics and the fantastic voice of Henka, the bands music turns out to be a balanced mix between melodic pop and arena hard rock.
In 2005, Lydia released their debut album Gloria Cant Dance on the label NZW Records. The album received great reviews and took the band to a position as one of the most interesting Swedish bands of modern pop.
Lydia will be coming to the United States in 2009. Contact us for routing.
