Biografi
The band first started in the late 90s but claimed to have found the right chemistry of people and sound about a half year ago. In the reinvented spirit the band took their name, drawn from the Brian Eno song, "Spider & I". It symbolizes the bands discovering approach to its music.
Spider & I, could be described as: "Velvet Underground inviting The Smiths in an attempt to make soundtracks for Finnish movies, accompanied by Tindersticks and Deus”. Inspired by salmon-fishing they write songs stripped to their bare essentials: relations, a wish for changes and ordinary people in extraordinary situations.
The music is trembling in the balance between hope and despair, performed with experimental sounds and mellow (yet intensive and dramatic) pop harmonies. However, the two founders Ronny Mattsson (guitar/piano/synthesizer /organ/vocals) and Daniel Sjöblom (vocals/guitar) instinctively move the music forward without a clear format together with the rest of the core musicians, Johan Bring (bass/guitar/synthesizer) and Erik Rundelius (drums). Also, as recurrent guest musicians you find Viyaja (vocals), Anders-Petter Kjellgren (trumpet) from the Eskalator and Sara Toftgård (violin).
