One of last season's highlights was the outstanding local debut of Swedish smart-pop band Peter Bjorn and John. Now front man Peter Moren returns for a set highlighting his own song craft.



Expect to hear new takes on PB&J anthems, as well as a batch of fresh tunes, including songs from Moren's debut solo release, which was inspired by F. Scott Fitzgerald's unfinished final novel, The Love of the Last Tycoon, and On the Waterfront director Elia Kazan's screen adaptation, The Last Tycoon.

Fellow Swede Tobias Fröberg, who’s one of the producers on Morén’s solo debut and has previously toured with José Gonzalez, among others, opens the concert with a solo set.



Note: Very limited seating is available for this show.
