"cafe dare & dare studio´s"
In the mid 60-ies I started to write Me own songs. With the Beatles as main influence I wrote a couple of songs with My band at that time in mind. This the first band was baptised "the Leemons" and performed at a couple of teenageparties during this years.
The first song written was a sweet little song in Swedish called - Åh Carina. In mind was one of the girls that I did secretly love so much. (she never knew). The urge in me to go on writing was still very much present. A couple of different bands was formed, band that lived for a breif moment and then dissapered.
"fms-band / PBP "
It started as a homestudio project with app 250 different songs that Ive written. Main part of those songs was written with the Fetish/BDSM party scene that spread around the world in mind. But without the by then new tecno/rave sound. Many of the songs might be called x-rated but they was all telling a story in regards of different sexual behaviors.
Soon the homestudio grow to small and I beguin to My search for other musicians that wanted to be a part of the new band, called "fms-band". The band was based with 4 musicians, drums, bass, lead n rhythmguitar, keyboard plus 3 girls as front singers.
Those first years the band did change members at least a couple of times every month until its final setting was found. Adverts was placed in order to find vocalsingers. Almost 100 girls came to auditions that was held, among them three was choosen.
As all the members in the group also was playing in other groups, the project was set up to be a "fun break" with a couple of performances every year. All of us did have the normal familylife, with kids etc, so there was no intention to become anything near professionals.
When the band was contracted for a performance and a week before I rented rehearsing premesis for the weekend. Mainly rented from a local Scoutgroup.
The band played in Germany, Switzerland, Netherlands, Austria, UK and we really did have a great time. Until there was a halt and nothing happened for a long time exept that new songs was written.
During this time I was contracted to a female German artist who wanted to record a couple of my songs. She had the intetions of becoming a new Madonna, and was already a well knowns fetish model. The songs was recorded but somehow as often happens in the mad music buisness this artist wasnt interessted in sharing royality fees!
"club dare" and "dare cafe" was formed as a no profit organisation with a music-cafe as the daily base and income fore the club. Here You could order a cup of coffey, listen-play music. Buy second hand instruments aso.
The fms-band changed its name to PBP. Where PBP was the short version of "park bench petting" a name idea from one of the vocal girls - Kristina. In its premesis the "dare studio" was formed. The studio as such was based at the start around a mixer-table linked to two TEAC 4-track recorders in one of the rooms in the cafe.
More and more gadgets was found that made it look more and more like a nice studio. Not near a prostudio but still with the possibility to record bands, singers. During a period of two years, the cafe and studio was in existance.
"a stack of music gadgets at dare studio´s"
The bands last performance was made at a club in Malmoe. The whole things was also recorded for a TV program that was sent shortly after the performance night. The band members will be presented on this blog-site possibly next time.
Both the "dare studio´s" and "PBP" is today alive only as project name´s on different recording sessions, music/lyrics made and mainly performed by Me.
