Serenade for June is a Swedish alternative rock band that emerged from the group WhiteSilver , which was founded in Varberg in 2005 .
history
In 2005 Henrik Hagedorn ( vocals ), Patrick Douglas ( drums ), Issel ( bass ) and Jocke Ludvigsson ( guitar ) founded the band WhiteSilver. In the founding year, Atenzia Records (including Kid Down ) released their EP At Last We Burn , which the band produced together with Godfather . The EP is available for purchase in Germany at elitedigital .
The song In Brief , which was included in the soundtrack for the video game Football Manager 06 , achieved worldwide fame. This was also included and played in the rotation play at national airports. However, the band, which only had a few regional concerts, did not release any further CDs. It was said that WhiteSilver broke up.
Issel and Ludvigsson left the group at the end of 2005. Two years later, a new group was formed around Hagedorn and Douglas, which was to take the name Serenade for June . With Jonas Eckerström a new guitarist joined the band. After leaving, Hagedorn took over the bass guitar. Douglas continued to be the group's drummer. As a trio they worked on new material. With a new band name and material they flew to Orlando / Florida to try their luck in the States . The American indie label Dart Recordings immediately became aware of the group. The group signed with the label and produced their debut album The Emergency Poncho between 2007 and 2008 , which was released on March 21, 2008. It is or was available in Germany , France , Canada , Japan , the USA and the UK .
In 2008 they toured Sweden , where they performed at the Cortége Festival and the Mangel Festivalen . Some concerts took place with the group Hero In Action .
