Festival in august and Concept Sweden Managemen

The Itch are happy to announce that we are about to embark on a collaboration with management agency Concept Sweden Mgmt.(http://www.conceptsmgmt.se/) It will be interesting to see what we can cook up with the help and advice from a management so dedicated to the struggling musicians as Concept Sweden Management seem to be. A new chapter is about to begin for our band.

Here's a link to a video with footage from when we played at Sweden Rock festival in 2010. Check it out!

There's a brand new rock festival in Sweden called Rockviken(www.rockviken.se) in the beginning of august. We are really looking forward to play there and hang out with two of our favorite Swedish bands Abramis Brama and Bonafide who are also on the bill of this 2 day festival

Three broken ribs and a puctured lung!

”It hurt so bad I couldn't cry for help. Hell, I could

hardly breath” says drummer Johan recovering from this..... incident. When we called him on the phone he seemed to be in a really, really, REALLY good mood though. We all keep our fingers crossed that he will be strong and fit in time for the next gig, march 15th at Offside, Jönköping. And perhaps not so giggly. What happened? Well, apparently it takes more than one drummer to change a light bulb. For his next birthday we're giving him a proper ladder. Get well soon Johan!

Bass player Tobbe will participate in the recording of an album with Spanish guitar player Manuel Seaone and the new line-up of his band Burning Kingdom, together with other Scandinavian musicians such as Johnny Benson(Bai Bang, Pretty Wild) on drums, and Mikkel Hendersson(Fate) on keyboards. Danny Vaughn from Tyketto will handle the vocals. The album will be released in september on Avispa Music, the major hardrock label in Spain. For more info check the Burning Kingdom website http://www.manuelseoane.net/

What a big crowd at Debaser, Malmö, where we played with Dirty Passion last month. We had a great time! Stay tuned for more live dates to come.

/Rrrawk on!

We had a blast opening for our old heroes in Electric Boys at the fabulous Zaragon Rock Club! Cool photos from this gig, and other various performances are coming up soon!

We try to get out on the road as much as possible but are in dire need of a proper booking agency. Getting it all together takes time and a lot of hard work! Rest assured, we'd rather be on stage doing what we do best! Hope to see all of you soon!

Feel free to (share) and check out our Facebook page often for frequent updates of all sorts in 2012!!

Rrrawk On!
