Swedish indie rock band with six members, formed in 1997. The lineup since 2001, has consisted of Ola Klüft (vocals, guitar), Martin Gustafson (keyboards, backing vocals), Pehr Åström (bass), and Thomas Hedlund (drums). In 2005, the band was personally handpicked by Sarah McLachlan to open her second leg of the Afterglow tour. Each night of the tour, Sarah McLachlan joined the band and sang background vocals on their song 'Pills'. The live track was released as a promotional CD single and as an online exclusive EP via Tower Records later that year. Additionally, several of their songs have been played in episodes of the American television programs The O.C., One Tree Hill, Greek and Veronica Mars. in Veronica Mars, the ballad "Sway" featured prominently in a climactic episode of the series' second season. Sarah Isaksson (Klüft's former vocal teacher) is a featured artist on their song "Pills." Their song 'My Heart' has been played on Saturn Sedan commercials as well as a second-season episode of the ABC Family series Kyle XY. Another song, 'Trouble Sleeping', was played in a promotional spot for Grey's Anatomy; the song 'Come Out of the Shade' was featured in an episode of the show. Klüft also performs under the name A Lanky Swede; on 14 April 2011, he released his first single.
