The Sweptaways are 30 ladies singing covers.
December is here and so is the annual christmas tradition of
The Sweptaways christmas EP!
This year they have teamed up with Marit Bergman on lead
vocals in "Christmas party". A cover of The Conctretes
fantastic "Lady december" has also been recorded. From the
previous EP last year this years EP also includes "Cry, cry
christmas" and "Silver bells" with Magnus Carlson from
weeping willows and The Gray Brigade as backing band, making
this years EP a full on assault of christmas candy!
Marit Bergman:
"My friend ┼sa Jacobsson, who plays keyboard with me now and
then, once wrote the top 3 list of her life, and it looked
like this:
1. Animals. 2. Christmas. 3. Music.
Mine is quite similar:
1. Choir singing. 2. Christmas. 3. DonÆt know.
Now you see why it was impossible for me to refuse the offer
of recording a Christmas song with The Sweptaways. Hope you
like it."

About the genre tag, the first two tracks are Acappella while
in the other two they are accompanied by a band (The Gray
Brigade), so those tracks would be pop or something.
