1). Nixon, from Halmstad, Sweden, is a project of Roger Gunnarsson (Free Loan Investments, The Garlands, Cloetta Paris...), and perhaps the one he is best known for. Gunnarsson began recording songs as Nixon with his cousin when he was a child in the mid 1980s. Some time later in the mid 1990s, he and friend Henrik Påhle recorded a Nixon demo which caught the attention of a few labels in their native Sweden and North America. Following a few EP releases, Nixon made their full-length debut with Only Ugly People Smoke in 2000, which also featured vocal and songwriting contributions from Anna Issakson. Gunnarsson continued to make Nixon records, now mostly alone, into the 21st century. A second full-length appeared in 2002 entitled November 1985 but after the Snow Day EP the following year, the project went on an unoffical hiatus and Gunnarsson continued to work with his other bands. In 2011, a new Nixon compilation of previously released material entitled Anorak Christmas came out on Anorak Records of France. The sleevenotes of this release announced that there would be a Nixon 7" EP of brand new recordings released on Cloudberry Records. This record eventually surfaced in late 2012 and is entitled This Town.
2). Nixon is a rock band formed in Almeria, Spain, by longtime friends in 2010. Previously known as Scaramusa, the band currently consists of Alex (lead vocals, guitar) Daniel Girona (lead guitar), Pedro Gil (drums, percussion, synthesizers), Juanmi (guitars, synthesizers), and Sergio (bass, synthesizers and backing vocals).
The quintet has toured widely throughout Spain supporting acts such as Second, Ninos Mutantes and Full. Following a two-year tour, the band released in 2006 it's full-length studio album titled El Ultimo Fuego after a successful crowdfunding campaign. This record made the band earn an unique sound by the use of synthesizers and analog drum machines.
They received attention due to their appearance in Los Conciertos de Radio3, reaching a huge audience with their performance at the 20th anniversary of Sonorama Ribera festival, Weekend Beach or Granada Sound among many others.
Alongside their critical acclaim and promising future, Nixon has found its place as an emerging act necessary in the Spanish music scene. Their brand of dark indie rock is commonly compared to the sound of bands such as Depeche Mode, Foals and U2.

Nixon Lyrics
calling Here we are again beneath these stars All the same not…
Dreams Some poor soul is crying For reasons few may come to…
i want you Take yo phone off silent ima call you back in…
