ABOUT US

Based in Stockholm, Sweden Ice was initially formed in 2018 through relationships made on social media, but as a consequence of the pandemic, by 2020 only Olof and José would remain the primary architects of this intent-driven alternative-rock band. The duo’s first single, “The Light In The Tunnel” clues listeners into the optimistic spirit within the lyrics and the orchestral and ambient nature of the music. Meticulously crafting their own sonic space while providing a strong sense of familiarity, Sweden Ice might be best described as a blend between rock and electronica. 

Sweden Ice walks a fine line between rock, electronic, and pop music. 2021 single “Who Are You” was released as a both ‘rock edit’ and an ‘extended edit’ exploring these aspects of the band’s musicality. The dual nature of the song looks inward, exploring what it means to be an individual while also holding yourself personally accountable as a global citizen. “Rainbow Eye”, the first single released by Sweden Ice in 2022, lyrically alludes to looking at the world through the prism of your mind’s eye in order to stay open to possibilities and better understand the shared experience of our existence with one another; its ethereal nature reminding listeners of our infinite potential within the vastness of the space. 

Every note and phrase by Sweden Ice is full of that infinite potential and filled with purpose. “The idea is to catch the listener with the music from every possible angle,” says José. “Every sound has to have a meaning. No melodic line in our songs can be random. Sweden Ice has to be an experience for your senses; something that transports you to the universe you want to be in.” 

The careful attention to detail is a necessity for Sweden Ice, whose eclectic range of influences extending from classic rock icons Rush, Queen, and Pink Floyd; guitar virtuosos like Steve Vai and Joe Satriani; pop-rock artists like Kent, Coldplay, and Grandaddy; as well as influences from other rock bands that like to push the borders of genre such as Radiohead, The Flaming Lips, The Soundtrack of Our Lives, and Suede.  

With the release of their second single of 2022, “Everglow” with the message: “Earth is a beautiful place – Take care of it!” Sweden Ice continues to explore its own evolution while seeking to engage audiences with music inspiring sustainability; not only environmental sustainability but also social and financial sustainability. The band hopes to shine a light on the various aspects of our human condition that are better served by being addressed and maintained regularly rather than waiting until they are broken to pick up the pieces.  

“We want to be able to convey our thoughts and feelings through music to connect people together from all over the world who believe in the power of creativity and what we can accomplish together.” Olof
