Some kind of info...

Country, Bluegrass, Old Time, Honky Tonk, Alt-Country... TRAILERPARK IDLERS are all of that, and none of it. They don't care much which genre they're classified in just as long as the music burns.

September 17, 2006, four men entered the rehearsal studio to beat out some rhythm together. With influences from traditional country such as; Hank Williams, Carter family and Johnny Cash, to rock and punk acts like The Rolling Stones, Gram Parsons and Ramones, Trailerpark Idlers came up with a sound of their own. The coming year the bass player left and Ben Dee took his place, in the beginning of 2008 Miss LisaLee joined and the current lineup was then completed.

The band is, since a couple of years back, strictly acoustic. The two lead singers, Morgan and Miss LisaLee, brings a variation into the music, from raw and mean to nice and sweet. The lead instrumentalists of the band, JK Anderson and Ben Dee, alternate between mandolin, guitar and accordion and take turns handling the double bass.

Trailerpark Idlers are well known to the Swedish Country Music audience and have been seen at most of the domestic festivals. They are into a never-ending recording session. Though they have existed as a band for about five years they have released ten, 10, CD's so far. Their songs have been on radio playlists all over the world, New Zeeland, Australia, Denmark, USA, France, Germany, Finland, Italy, Belgium and yet some more countries. They have their own recording studio called "The Forge" and their own label called "Something Wicked".
