BIOGRAPHY

"The best I've heard in ten years…": those are the words from the founder of legendary Kerrang Magazine Dave Reynolds when he listened to Spin Gallery debut in 2004 !

Born as a unique mix of 3 lead singers, Spin Gallery now has morphed in a collaboration between singer/songwriter Kristoffer Lagerström together with highly skilled producer, songwriter and guitarist Tommy Denander.

The sound and concept behind the band started in 1997 when Tommy together with Kristoffer recorded a few demos, including the song "Grace" that was originally released on Tommy's Radioactive album "Ceremony Of Innocence" and later re-recorded for the Spin Gallery debut.

The concept for the Spin Gallery sound has always been to mix melodic rock like Mr Mister, Toto and Giant with a more modern high tech sound that can be described as thinking man's Melodic Rock for the new millennium and also include influences of Peter Gabriel, Sting and Pink Floyd.

The first album featured a few guests like David Foster, Michael Thompson and Randy Goodrum and with the new line up of Spin Gallery being the original members Kristoffer Lagerström and Tommy Denander they once again wanted to invite just a couple of friends as special guests.

2 legendary voices sing duet with Kristoffer on the new album, Dan Reed on the song "You Do The Things You Do" and Robin Beck on the radio friendly "Just A Momentary Why". "Embrace" also features the great L.A. session master Glen Marks on drums and Swedish sensation Marika Willstedt on cello.

Kristoffer and Tommy spent 18 months working on this album to ensure that every song is a smash and that "Embrace" lives up to the praise of the first release as well as standing the test of time with a masterful craft in songwriting, performance and production.
