Robert Johnson and Punchdrunks at Kollektivet Livet Bar & Scen on the 1st of October, 2025

Robert Johnson and Punchdrunks

Robert Johnson and Punchdrunk return to the Kollektivet Livet Bar & Scen. Support: Bürner.

Kollektivet Livet favourites Robert Johnson and Punchdrunks are back at the bar and venue at Slussen in Stockholm. The group is always relevant, but even more so now with their brand new album, Box Office Poison, in tow. The band consists of Robert Johnson on guitar, Jonathan Doe (Samuraj Cities) on guitar, Johan Wallnäs (Dub Sweden) on bass and synth, and Robert Johansson (Fact of Novelty) on drums.

Mention Robert Johnson and Punchdrunks and thoughts immediately turn to style-defining instrumental rock and the theme tune for the TV series Kent Agent. For more than thirty years, the band has enjoyed a respected position as the number one in the genre.

Robert Johnson and Punchdrunks formed in 1992. Although their music and style are deeply rooted in the ’50s and ’60s, they are reluctant to look back. Puritans need not apply: Robert Johnson and Punchdrunks always forge their own path.

Support act: Bürner! Bürner makes classic hard rock music.

This is an 18+ event (under 13s must be accompanied by a parent or guardian).

KC BABY at Årsta Folkets Hus on the 4th of October, 2025

What could be more fitting than KC BABY releasing a new album and playing live again at Årsta Folkets Hus? This idyllic neighbourhood has grown and matured, gaining a new kind of beauty in the process. It was also in Årsta that Kajsa Magnarsson and Conny Nimmersjö moved in together and became parents. It was also there that their relationship ended, but not the band or what they continue to share. The duo’s second album, ‘Nästan Perfekt’ (Almost Perfect), tells the story of that journey. It’s about what rubs us the wrong way and what holds us together.

Don’t miss this unique gig!

Release of the album Gråton by Ola Backström with guests Mattias Alkberg, Torkel Rasmusson and others

Ola Backström Gråton, Rönnells

Ola Backström (1953–2004) played a key role in forming bands such as Dag Vag and Stockholm Norra in the 1970s. He also played the guitar and synthesiser on Torkel Rasmussen‘s solo albums. In the early 1980s, he put his music career on hold to focus on visual art. However, free from expectations and demands, he continued to write and record his own music, which almost no one got to hear. Until now.

Join us to celebrate the release of the album Gråton with Ola Backström.

  • Mattias Alkberg and his band will perform live!
  • Torkel Rasmussen will sing and talk about Ola.
  • Siri, Frej and Måns Backström will perform some of the album’s songs.
  • There will also be an exhibition featuring a selection of Ola’s paintings.

Compiled posthumously from Ola’s remaining recordings, the album Gråton reveals a low-key and expressive songwriter with a unique style. While the music bears traces of influences from Brian Eno, Tom Verlaine, and Swedish prog rock, it also has a personal voice that is both self-assured and fragile.

The album will be released on LP and via streaming services on 3 October 2025. ‘Gråton’ is released by the record label Fanfar!

Date

Thursday, 9 October 2025, 7–10 p.m.

Location

Rönnells Antikvariat, Birger Jarlsgatan 32, Stockholm

Admission

SEK 50 on the door; no advance registration required. Seats are limited.

This event is presented by Rönnells in collaboration with Fanfar!, Rönnells Vänner, the Swedish Arts Council, the City of Stockholm and Humlegården Fastigheter.
