Artist History I've been making music since 1997. It all started with "the American Flyers" (you can check our first demo recordings here: http://www.mp3.com/americanflyers). That time I used to play eletric and acoustic guitar. Then I started to compose and really enjoyed it. It was very different from now, nothing was eletronic and nothing ever had much production. Playing with Rafael Studart Marangoni since then, I started to compose more and even sing with him! It was always great... Time really flies! We won a big music contest here in Brazil playing Radiohead's "Fake Plastic Trees" back in 1999. After that, Rafael started to work on another project and he's around with great recordings!! I begun to play and sing without him and try other instruments. Composing even more, in 2000 I locked myself in my studio for a couple of months and produced and recorded my first solo album all by myself. A 12 track Alternative, Progressive Rock'n Roll and Grunge album with many influences and with some loving Ballads. It was my first atempt on working on a extended project own my own. It's called "Comma What?!" and it was my first release as "Främling Skap". A couple of years have passed and LavaSound, my home studio was stabilished giving strengh and quality to my work. Check my official site for extended information and much more: http://framlingskap.cjb.net . I'm working on new songs for a Fresh new album! You'll be surprised with this my new work! (Soon)

Press Reviews "Främling Skap? Is this project stuck in the eighties? André can produce any style, sounding FRESH and NOSTALGIC at the same time!" ("Trails of Things Unseen" album review - 2002) "From BALLADS to GRUNGE passing thru ROCK'n ROLL, PROGRESSIVE and HARD ROCK." ("Comma What" album review - 2000)
