Small interview with Martin


In the paper Allehanda you can read a smaller interview today with Martin that is about their gig tonight at Härnösand's city festival...and here is the translation:

"BWO is ready for the City Festival
They are ready for the weekend.When all the other artists made Härnösands city festival BWO will step out and top everything. The singer Martin Rolinski looks forward to that.
- We have had really good feedback north so I am not at all worried. Have the people with you that helps keep track of things you can in fact be ready four gigs a week. It is a pity is that it is not much time to stop and look around where you play.
In April, dropped the pop-trio the new album Big Science, which, at this stage in the band's career, have been met with expected success. First single "You're not alone" was voted up to the second chance in Melodifestivalen, and in summer, "Right here right now" moved into the lists in both the U.S. and Japan. And as a whole disc is like a love child. Rolinski reluctant to call it "the best we have done", but in the end find no other words.
- It is a very natural way for us to come right now, "he says. Compared with our earlier material is Big Science more real and complex - something we have longed after to do. We have always cared to write our own songs and so it is fun when you can take turns out like this.
Any holiday, they have barely had time for. Alexander Bard, bandets grundare, ägnar sin tid utanför BWO åt att skriva böcker, hålla föreläsningar och engagera sig politiskt. Alexander Bard, the band's founder, give his time outside the BWO to write books, give lectures and engage politically. Marina Schiptjenko runs a successful art gallery, and Martin himself combines the role of popsinger with a job as a product developer for TeliaSonera.
- Innovation is very important for us all three, and to have a breadth of what we do. Personally I love all types of communication and can express it through my two jobs. Vi har många bollar i luften alla tre, men det har gått att hantera bra. We have many balls in the air all three, but it has gone well to handle.
The peace mayb not be forever. Recently Martin and his wife revealed that they are expecting children before the end of the year. How it will affect the hectic life that Martin describes, he doesn't know, but it certainly will be some change he believe.
- It will be like entering a new phase. Life will certainly undergo changes, but in what way is probably up to itself. Anyway, it should be really exciting to be a father. I need someone to check my hyperactive side.
BWO play on the main stage on Saturday at 22:30."

PS. Martin sings "You're Not Alone" at this photo. That is magic !
