PRESS TEXT:
VARGEN Releases New Album “Tänk Inte Efter – Bob Dylan på svenska” (Don’t Think Twice – Bob Dylan in Swedish)
”It Ain’t Me, Babe”, ”Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door” and “Love Minus Zero” are among the eight Bob Dylan classics now covered in Swedish by singer-songwriter Reine Johansson, the man behind the artist name Vargen (“The Wolf”).
On his new album “Tänk Inte Efter – Bob Dylan på svenska” (Don’t Think Twice – Bob Dylan in Swedish) he’s backed by a full band and on half of the songs he shares the vocals with fellow translator Mia Rosengren. Musically, the songs vary between Americana, Country and Rock, with essential contributions by Dan Kristensen on guitar, lap steel and dobro.
Some of the songs on the album are released for the first time in Swedish, since Bob Dylan and his publishers rarely approve translations of his legacy. Also included on the album is the single “Men Bara Om Min Älskade Väntar”, a 1975 cover by Swedish rock icon Ulf Dageby on “Tomorrow is a Long Time”.
The album is released on Friday April 26th 2019 on Vinyl, CD and Digital Download on Vargen Records/Border
