Weeping Willows Christmas

On 19 December 2026 in Linköping, Sweden, Weeping Willows bring a Christmas date shaped by their signature melancholic pop-rock. Formed in 1995, the Swedish group first cut their teeth on covers touched by country, rockabilly and 50s/60s pop before turning to original material. Magnus Carlson’s voice sits at the center, carried by clear guitars, restrained tempos and arrangements for strings or brass that echo orchestrated ballads, soul hues and a certain sixties rock heritage.

That palette runs through a long line of albums, from Broken Promise Land (1997) to Endless Night (1999) and Into the Light (2001), opening toward a more modern pop-rock sensibility on Presence (2004) and Fear & Love (2007). After a recording pause, the band returned with The Time Has Come (2014), Tomorrow Became Today (2016), After Us (2019), The Dreams We Weave (2022) and Goodwill (2025). Today, Weeping Willows centers on Magnus Carlson, Ola Nyström, Niko Röhlcke and Anders Hernestam, a tight core that sculpts warm, nuanced arrangements—an elegant fit for a seasonal night in Linköping.
