JOHAN PIRIBAUER (Sweden) 

 

First NZ tour September 2008

 

Johan Piribauer is a folkrock artist/singer-songwriter from Arvidsjaur, Lapland, Sweden near the Artic Circle.

 

Johan has been playing for 20 years as a guitarist in different bands and for about 10 years in a Folkrock-project called "Johan Piribauer & Gruvtolvan".  He also performs and tours as a solo artist and with his partner and backing vocalist Maud Rombe.

 

Johan's melodic songs, sung in Swedish, are inspired by Lappish nature and culture. His songs are very varied, from slow ballads to up-tempo rockers, all with a folk feeling. Many of his songs have received radio play and his music has also used as background-music on TV-programs.


Since 1995 Johan has released 4 full-length CDs and 2 singles on a small label called "Inlandskult Records".


Johan and his band are well known on the Scandinavia music circuit, and he regularly plays concerts and festivals both as a band member and a solo artist. As Johan  lives in "the wilderness", in a small town with 5000 inhabitants, he also like touring outside the big cities, playing small intimate venues in the countryside. Since 2001 he has played venues in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Faeroe Islands and the north of Germany.

 

In a more adventurous move, Johan took his guitar on a holiday trip to the Antarctic in 2007 where he played his southernmost gigs ever. 

 

Although he's always been an "underground-artist", many critics have said that Johan is one of the important artists to take Swedish progressive folk-rock from the seventies into the 21st century. He also has a musical profile in Lapland as an arranger of concerts and festivals.

 

During 2007 Johan has been working on a new album for release in spring 2008.  

 

In September 2008 Johan and Maud's will make their first New Zealand tour with Flying Piglets.
