When Blind Terry Wrecked My Mind

“But Terry says ‘No, Pop /They’re just plain heroes’” – Bruce Springsteen

If there is possibly a band on Earth I would really die to see playing live in front of me gigglin’ head and heart on the Moon 2 inches from the stage, well lads, that band would be “Blind Terry” for sure. One word? P.E.R.F.E.C.T. Started as a duo, the band now sounds something like Lucky Soul (“Woah Terry!!!”) meeting an upgraded version of Frida Hyvonen on clever lyrics and songs, just like a strange indie version of Feist being born again on Sweden. The first time I heard “When Prefab Sprout Wrecked My Mind” it was a knock-down. “Burn School Down” seems anything but an indie-track, and it would be perfect radio material, while I wouldn’t mind hearing “The Subtle Art of How to Brake a Heart” while dancing on a “How Does It Feel To Be Loved” night in London. Listen carefully to this band and listen loud. Kristina, Henrik, Isak, Björn and Josefin deserves ALL THE BEST in the World. Carlo Rolan would be proud.
