To Release Sixth Studio Album in March, 2023
Sweden’s Grande Royale returns with the digital single "Tell Me". Mixed by Robert Pehrsson (Death Breath, Dundertåget, Imperial State Electric, to name a few), ”Tell Me” is the first taste of the Scandinavian garage rock outfit’s upcoming, sixth studio album 'Welcome to Grime Town'.
Picking up where Grande Royale’s latest album 'Carry On' from 2021 left off, the new material showcases what the four-piece does best; straight forward, melodic, and explosive rock music.
Grande Royale on the new single "Tell Me":
"Johan Häll (drums) had a hard time recording his part. He spent three days in the studio trying to make the track swing. When he thought he finally had nailed it, he sent the track to our guitarist/singer Gustav Wremer. Gustav wasn't pleased with the way Johan had played on the track and actually deleted his recording. The two of them had a heated discussion with almost fists being thrown at each other. Johan was furious and went back in the drum recording room and actually played it one last time, totally smashing the kit. And that’s the version that eventually was used.
Grande Royale’s upcoming album 'Welcome to Grime Town' will be released on The Sign Records in March, 2023. The single "Tell Me" is out now on all streaming platforms.
Grande Royale is a rock'n'roll band who find their roots in the early 70’s rock scene of Detroit and the 90’s rock scene in Scandinavia, mixed up with some vintage pop. The music is straight forward rock'n'roll packed with electric guitars, melodic vocals, and thundering bass lines. Grande Royale is wild and savage rock for a new generation!
Grande Royale’s sixth album 'Welcome to Grime Town' will be released in 2023 on The Sign Records. The album is the first Grande Royale recording featuring new member Calle Rydberg, replacing Andreas Jenå on guitars and vocals. The 12 electrifying tracks on 'Welcome to Grime Town' were mixed by Robert Pehrsson (Robert Pehrsson Humbucker).
The band's fifth studio album 'Carry On' was self-produced and released in 2021. The track "Just as bad as you" feature Dregen on guest vocals. The album has a rawer approach than Grande Royale's previous releases, with more electric guitars and an honest and direct feeling all over it. As with 'Welcome to Grime Town', 'Carry On' was mixed by Robert Pehrsson.
In 2019 the band's fourth album ’Take It Easy’ was released. The album was produced by Ola Ersfjord, and holds a more southern rock approach than the previous albums. The album holds more soul and has larger arrangements, using instruments like horns to create a big sound. The band toured a lot on the album and did gigs in Spain, Sweden, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, and most parts of Europe.
In the summer of 2016, Grande Royale started to work on their third album in the Honk Palace with Nicke Andersson (Imperial State Electric, The Hellacopters, Entombed) as the engineer and producer. The album got the title ‘Breaking News’, and was the first album the band released on The Sign Records and was released in August 2017. After the album release, the band went on a tour all over Europe. During the tour, the band recorded their live album ‘Captured Live’, released in 2018.
During the band's first year, Grande Royale recorded and released their debut album titled ‘Cygne Noir’ (2014), and the second album was released in 2015 with the title ‘No Fuss – A piece by resolute men’. At this stage, the band recorded all of their material by themselves, and also released the albums on their own. These records made it possible for the band to go out and play live shows all over Sweden, as well as in the U.K and Southern Europe. With energetic live shows, and tight performances Grande Royaleraised the roof off the venues.
