Azure Blue
is the new solo project from Tobias Isaksson.
Tobias Is a talented songwriter and a colorful profile on the Swedish pop scene. His old bands 'Irene' and 'Laurel Music' attracted worldwide recognition, documented from The Allmusic Guide to the blogosphere, but this is a brand new start. With Azure Blue, Tobias has surpassed all his previous work. The whole process has been like watching a baby dolphin being born.
The name is a paraphrase of Dennis Wilson's "Pacific Ocean Blue". Tobias says: "It's Wilson's honest look with the epic beard and the ocean blue mood itself that has inspired me. Along with other male storytellers like Earnest Hemingway, Klas Östergren and Grant McLennan. I wanted to make a mature AOR record but ended up flirting with new wave and new romantic as well."
With the producer and instrumentalist Midnight Ruler Tobias has created pure pop gold. A New Gold Dream 2010/2011/2012. Timeless yet modern. It's honest, pure and wise like Paul Auster's The Red Notebook. It makes us laugh and cry and pick up a novel.
"The Catcher in the Rye" is the first single from the upcoming album
'Rule Of Thirds'
