"After
building his guitar from the pines of Wisconsin and recording his first
solo album O Lost!, Sawyer found himself 7000 miles away in the country
hills of Sweden.Arriving at Rosenhill farm, Brittsommar formed upon the meeting of Johan Björk Dahl (guitar) and Evelin Sillén (violin/vocal).Between
red wine stained walls below the still blue night, Brittsommar recorded
various songs in what they call "the glass house" and "the black smiths
temple".They debued their first show in a hallowed barn concert during a cold
October night with only a candle chandelier to light the darkened music.In
early winter, Sawyer went back home to record Brittsommar's first
album, Day of Living Velvet- recorded in an abandoned synogogue. One can
hear the lake freeze out the stained and broken windows.Returning to Sweden in the summer of 2011, Brittsommar released Day of Living Velvet in a signature hallowed barn show.After
organizing Stockholm art gallery concerts and performing at Peace &
Love Festival, Brittsommar is now residing in Berlin recording their
second album The Machine Stops.
Brittsommar is collaborating with artists and musicians from all over
Europe and the U.S. for the much anticipated album, creating the
conceptual idea of what exists deep below the bowells of soul and the
secrets buried within stories never told."
