(It’s the day after a holiday in the US and I wasn’t going to post but I figure if you’re in Sweden you could care less that I’m full to the brim with turkey, stuffing and pies. Also I’m sitting on a couple of exclusives including this new song by Richard Reagh that I wanted to share and I couldn’t wait until Monday. Enjoy.)
I always feel a little guilty about writing about Richard Reagh. See he’s not Swedish, at least not yet. He’s a Canadian living in Stockholm but he has ingratiated himself with all the greats in Sweden (Montt Mardie and Sophie Rimheden). In fact Montt Mardie shows up on the first single, “Boo Backe” from the new record Is this the Blues I’m Singing? which is slated to hit the cold Swedish streets Dec. 12.
Richard’s a big proponent of remixes both of his songs by other artists and by him of other artists’ songs. In fact there’s already a remix of “Boo Backe” by the Swedish group Flow Flux Clan. And while it doesn’t improve on the original it does make it a bit more danceable. Here’s “Boo Backe” (what the hell does that mean anyways?).
