Billie the Vision & the Dancers Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

At first impression the indie pop ensemble, Billie the Vision & The Dancers might seem as yet another pop band with no apparent worries. But if you were to dig a little deeper, you would soon discover that they're not always about expressing joy, happiness and dancing. What is more, their music actually manages to transcend generation gaps. Billie, moreover, is not a person per se, but rather represents the inherent quality the band wants to encourage their listeners to find within themselves. Billie is about not being afraid of being naive, pretentious or corny, to be proud of what you are and have the guts to say, "Meet us there at the Nobel Square if you wanna change the world with us". Billie the Vision and the Dancers got together in Malmö during the recordings of the first album in the spring of 2004. The Singer, Songwriter Lars Lindquists had previous material from a solo project. One person wasn't enough he thought, and had persuaded five more members to join the project. Most of them old friends from his home town Bräkne-Hoby in Blekinge, and on top of that a new friend from Borlänge. The debut I Was So Unpopular in School and Now They're Giving Me This Beautiful Bicycle released on their own label Love Will Pay the Bills got great reviews in the press and also got nominated at Manifest, the Swedish prize award for records released on indie labels. 2005 saw the release of The World According To Pablo and in 2007 "Where The Ocean Meets My Hand" was released. June 4th 2008 will see the release of the band's 4th full length album entitled "I Used To Wander These Streets". Current group members are: Silvio Arismendi - percussion Maria Carlsson - bass guitar John Dunsö - acoustic guitar, second vocals Lisa Haglind - trumpet, accordion Fia Janninge - percussion, violin, second vocals Gustav Kronkvist - guitar Lars Lindquist - vocals For more information on the band, visit the official website at www.billiethevision.com or www.myspace.com/billiethevisionandthedancers
