Two Year Vacation is the band that originates from its own contrast. Founded in Gothenburg, Sweden’s second city, a seaport known for its rain, headwind and grayness, the quintet makes rhythmic radio-friendly indie pop. Or as it’s been labeled by Swedish press “Tropical kraut-pop”.
Two Year Vacation is about driving out all stale senses of the mundane. With their new EP “Getting Into Real Estate”, scheduled for an October release this year, Two Year Vacation have been letting themselves dive deep into a common existential crisis where they’ve realized they are no big shareholders, they don’t own any luxurious houses or way too fast cars – Nothing of all that which is being portrayed through all our screens on a daily basis as the dream life. But with this EP they’ve let themselves get into the real estate to see how fun it could be, living the life being idolized for so many of us all. All in their own way though.
“We went into the studio during some, to Gothenburg, rare extreme hot summer days in 2020 and blended all the sounds that inspired us mid-pandemic. We came out with four songs about dreaming of music with a cocktail in our hands. We’re Two Year Vacation and we’re getting into the real estate.” – says the band,
The first single “What Goes Around” arrives June 4th and is OUT NOW. It is “an arena anthem about growing up. The song is about the life choices and routes possible from growing up in a small town. Some tried their hardest to become something else, just anything else really. Others stayed the same.” greets the singer Jacob Ahlstrand.
The official music video follows the singer Jacob through a wild performance at a local karaoke bar. Careless about the locals he’s taking over the place.
