TWH-Jakob plays the best from the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and 00’s at Klubb Lennart, Scharinska, Umeå, Sweden 18/11 at 9pm. Don’t miss this opportunity to enjoy my impeccable taste in music.

Long time, no see. We’re playing at Debaser Slussen, Stockholm, this Wednesday at 8 pm. The club is called Life’s a beach and you will definitely feel all summery when having a beer (or water or whatever) near the water (we’re playing outside). Be there, dear friends! It’s the last chance to say goodbye to a summer that will never return.

Västerbotten and Jämtland are two of the most beautiful regions of Sweden. In summer they give us two brilliant music festivals; Trästocksfestivalen and Storsjöyran. We’ll be there and hope to see you!

Trästocksfestivalen, Campustältet, Saturday 18th of July, 9PM (21.00)

Storsjöyran, Bombay Sapphire Club, Thursday 30th of July , 10.15PM (22.15)

Hello,

We are alive! Just very busy, that’s why we haven’t written in a while. We’re playing in Brooklyn tonight, at Union Hall - great venue. Tomorrow’s show is in Philadelphia and on Friday we’re at the famous Mercury Lounge. Be there or be a shy swede. This is what we’ve been doing instead of blogging:

1. Getting our nails done

2. Playing at boat that rocked so much Jakob fell while playing

3. Trying to avoid Starbucks but always ending up there anyway

As soon as we get back we’ll publish pictures and stories from our very first tour in America. There are pictures of us at the Seinfeld diner and snapshots from one of our numerous pizza dinners. Very nice. Don’t miss that.

Love,

TWH

On thursday we leave for New York. This city is enormous. But we figured we’ll just do like we do with Old Umeå, Sweden. Play our way through it. Check off club after club until there are no more places to go (eh…). Our beloved hosts Paul and Jake (with help from others) has put together a plan for our stay, including 5 clubs in New York and also two in Philadelphia. See tour dates on the right side of this page. So please come and see us on one, two or all of the dates. All vår väntan blifver svår, as we say here in Sweden. (The waiting is hard.)

19 June Brooklyn, NY    Southpaw 9pm

20 June Philadelphia      The Black Lodge             8pm

21 June NY                   Rocks Off Concert cruise
aboard the Half Moon                                           3pm

22 June NY                   Pianos 9pm

24 June Brooklyn, NY   Union Hall 7.30pm

25 June Philadelphia     North Star bar 8pm

26 June NY                   Mercury Lounge 7.30pm

Next week we’re going west like vikings and Neil Tennant before us. After that we’re playing some swedish festivals in july. Sundsvall, Skellefteå and Östersund. Klick tourdates on the right side of this for dates. All three of them within 500 km. Unbelievable! We could almost go there by bicycle. If it wasn’t for the horseheads and sticks etc. Some more dates might be added but we’ll let you know.

Due to an upcoming trip to New York, and the expected interest this will create from people not familiar with the swedish language, we have decided to convert to english. There were some heated discussions within the Two White Horses-camp on whether we should switch to french or english. One of us opted for french since “it is after all the international language of conversation; per se”. But: “the british empire has made some important progress, and the light of sun-king Louis XIV is fading and so is the french enlightenment “.

Since we don’t want to appear to reactionary we’ll go with the times and write in english. We’re very excited about the NY-trip and details will be posted soon. Until then you can  can enjoy some brief translations of the old posts on this page and/or on our MySpace.

Vi inviger sommaren genom att klippa bandet och spela några bitar på smygpremiären av Tisdagar-på-Rex. Det sägs att vi går av stapeln 23.30.

We’ll celebrate the arrival of summer by playing a few songs at the premiere of the club Tuesdays-at-Rex, Umeå.

Vi glömde ju fira skivan i vår hemstad i all hast. Den är verkligen värd att fira, men tyvärr var det så mycket annat att göra dom där dagarna så det blev liksom inte av. (Som att fira skivans tillkomst i Stockholm t ex.) På fredag blir det bot och bättring. Kom till Scharinska Villan i Umeå och kom i tid. Vi spelar redan kl.22

We’re celebrating the album release, in our hometown- Umeå.

I vår serie där vi utnyttjar andra band för att komma åt de vackraste scenerna i Sverige har turen nu kommit till Snow Patrol och Cirkus. Det brittiska bandet kommer till Stockholm och vi värmer upp, som det heter, redan kl.19.30

We’re taking advantage of other bands to get to play at the most beautiful stages of Sweden. This time we’ll open for Snow Patrol at the old and beautiful Cirkus, Stockholm.
