BACKYARD BABIES Performs On Swedish TV; Video Available

December 11, 2009

Swedish sleaze rockers BACKYARD BABIES were the featured musical guests on the December 8, 2009 edition of the "Nyhetsmorgon" program on Sweden's TV4. The band performed two songs, "Degenerated" and "Abandon", and took part in an interview.

Watch video of the group's performance below.

BACKYARD BABIES will go on indefinite hiatus following their upcoming European tour. "We will take a well-deserved break," the band's frontman Nicke Borg, 36, told the Aftonbladet newspaper.

Over the course of its 20-year career, the BACKYARD BABIES has churned out six studio albums, various collections and live recordings in addition to touring incessantly in support of each release.

"I have spent 20 years on the road and am happy with it," Borg told Aftonbladet. "For me, its time to puruse another way of life, with a bit more security. Plus I am extremely creative and want to work all the time. There is so much I want to do that I, unfortunately, did not have time for when I was constantly on tour."

To celebrate two decades together, BACKYARD BABIES will embark on the "Them XX Tour" in January/February. In addition, they will release a deluxe 120-page book titled "Them XX" containing private photos, three CDs and a DVD-documentary that conveys the 20 years of the BACKYARD BABIES story.

BACKYARD BABIES supported MÖTLEY CRÜE on select dates in Europe this past summer.

The band's latest, self-titled album topped the chart in the group's home country in its first week of release. The CD also entered the Finnish album chart at No. 31.

Released in Europe on August 18, 2008 via Billion Dollar Babies/Spinefarm, "Backyard Babies" was recorded during 90 sweaty days and nights at Polar and Big Island Sound studios in Stockholm with producer Jacob Hellner (RAMMSTEIN, APOCALYPTICA).
