Everything about Bob Hund totally explained


bob hund is a six-piece rock band from Sweden. Swedish for Bob Dog - their name was borrowed from a television cartoon character. Their music, hard to classify, is by some described as "a frantic celebration of the power of music to invigorate and give life" whereas others have suggested that bob hund sounds a bit like what you might expect if you managed to merge Pere Ubu and Pixies with a touch of Kraftwerk.
   The indie rock band started in autumn 1991 and the group as it's known today was formed within about half a year. The group consists of singer Thomas Öberg, guitarists Johnny Essing and Conny Nimmersjö, bassist Mats Hellquist, synthesizer player Jonas Jonasson and drummer Mats Andersson.
   bob hund have performed all over Scandinavia as well as in Poland and England. Some of their most notable performances have been at the Roskilde, Hultsfred, Ruisrock and Quart music festivals.
   From 2003 to 2006 the bandmembers' focus has been directed towards Bergman Rock, the band's English language side project.
   In August, 2006, they announced two concerts as bob hund.
   Thomas Öberg and Jonas Jonasson started a DJ-duo named Sci-Fi SKANE in 2005. Graham Coxon is a fan of bob hund and has performed a covers in Swedish/Skånska in his solo shows.
