I got a tip the other day about Jonas Tunander. Earlier this year he released the EP “You Took a Piece of My Heart”, which is available on på sin hemsida free for download.

He serves a pop/rock-mix where other influences can be sensed in the verses which erupts in nice catchy choruses. What catches me most in the end is Jonas’ vocals; he sings in a straightforward and open way that feels quite different.
I did recognise the way of singing somehow, but it wasn’t until I heard an electronica remix by Mars TV of the song “Get Your Feet Back On the Ground”, that I finally landed in the synth pop from the eighties and the vocals heard there.

You can listen to two tracks from “You Took a Piece of My Heart” below. The excellent remix, mentioned above, can be heard on Jonas Tunander’s site.
You can also visit him and the band on their Myspace page.
