On the 4th of July The Cardigans will perform at Tallinn Song Festival Grounds in Õllesummer 2015 festival.
After a long period of silence, The Cardigans delighted their fans by returning to the world’s stages two years ago. The band is now enjoying a newly found impetus and is to perform both the group’s golden hits as well as more recent music at Õllesummer.
The Swedish band was formed in 1992 and has retained its original membership to this day. The Cardigans gained elevated fame with their second album Life that featured the hit single Carnival. The group owes its stellar breakthrough in 1997 to the Hollywood blockbuster Romeo + Juliet starring Leonardo DiCaprio. The Cardigans’ Lovefool was included in the movie’s soundtrack, ensuring fame for the group on both sides of the Atlantic.
The Cardigans’ 1998 album featured the band’s second hit single My Favourite Game, the memorable video of which was directed by Jonas Akerlund. This celebrated Swedish director is behind the best music videos by artists such as Madonna, Moby, Lady Gaga, Roxette, and many more. The same album also includes Erase/Rewind that remains as an often played song on many radio stations.
The group’s 1998 album was followed by nearly ten years of the band members trying their luck at various solo projects, coming together only to make the Long Before Daylight album that was released in 2003. As from 2012, The Cardigans is back as a performer on the world’s largest stages.
