Peter Jöback – An Unofficial Home Page

Peter has revealed on his blog that one of the “En kväll med Peter Jöback” shows at Börsen was filmed for a possible DVD release and/or TV screening depending on whether it is felt that there is enough interest.

“Räddaren i nöden” was released on Friday but at this point is only available on iTunes in Sweden. Hopefully this will change in the coming week.

UPDATE (18 April 2011):  “Räddaren i nöden” is now available on iTunes throughout Europe.

Also available on Amazon UK and 7 Digital.

Here’s an oddity. Finnish artist Jore Marjaranta (best known as a member of Leningrad Cowboys) has recorded a cover version of Peter’s “Stockholm i natt” – in Finnish with the subject city changed to Helsinki.

“Niin Kaunis On Helsinki Nyt” was released as a single on iTunes internationally earlier this year and a longer version appears on the album of the same name released last week. The title translates to “So beautiful is Helsinki now”, courtesy of Google Translate.

Here is the single version of the song.

The official site advises that ”Räddaren i nöden” is being released digitally on Friday 1 April 2011. No word on whether it will be released internationally.

The official site has also added a 40 second clip from the song to the music player at the top of the page.

Peter’s new single ”Räddaren i nöden” has a very arty cover (see above).

The song was written by Ludwig Bell, a singer/songwriter also signed to Razzia Records.

Still no word on a release date, formats, etc.

Swedish indie group Billie the Vision & the Dancers are currently putting together a compilation of their 5 album catalogue. They are planning to include a disc of cover versions of their songs recorded by friends and role models.

Peter recently revealed on his blog that he has recorded a song with the group in Malmö.

The album is planned to be released before June.
