powerful, soulful, personal. Three girls with guitars and harmonicas.
Add to that a contageous energy on stage and you have “Cookies n' Beans”:
Charlotte Centervall, Linda Ström and Frida Öhrn.
On February 14th 2009 they will perform their song "What If" at the Swedish Eurovision Song Contest in Skellefteå.
The story of Cookies n' Beans takes us back to 2003 and a small basement in the Southern part of Stockholm, the indeed modest venue for their first gig. It was just meant to be an entertaining evening for friends and family, but the feedback and the sensation of playing together was just too overwhelming to let it end there.
This evening became the start of a more or less neverending tour, and by now they have made over 200 gigs in Sweden and Europe. In the fall of 2008 they won the category ”Alternative Country” at the prestigeous Swedish Country Music Championship, that took place in Sälen / Sweden.
The music of Cookies n' Beans is made out of heart and soul – they are heart and soul When three strong, personal voices find harmony, without having to compromise with their own expression, pure magic is bound to happen. Testimonies reveal that more than once large, big bearded men with tattoos have bursted into tears while listening to the Cookies playing live.
But they don’t just serve heartbreaking ballads: They also play raw and sweaty country music songs that make it impossible to stand still!
Among the more significant influences you will find artists like the brilliant Dolly Parton, Lucinda Williams and her appealing harshness, Gram Parson and Emmylou Harris with her characteristic touch of sadness.
During the spring of 2009 the band will be recording their second album (title tbc), and right now they are in the midst of the creative process. But first things first – The Swedish Eurovision Song Contest:
”It will be such great fun to participate in this beloved, nation wide music festivity! It’s wonderful that we get to play ”What If”, and with that get a possibilty to spread our joy and our music.”
