Description
The Spotnicks were Sweden's first internationally famous pop group whose outer-space-inspired, instrumental surf-twang climbed toward the top of the European, Australian and Japanese charts in the early 1960's. During their rise to fame, they wore space suits on stage, though this image evolved during the mid-sixties with French fashion guru Pierre Cardin designing - a futuristic Barbarellaesque look for them at one stage.
Instrumental guitar music was at its height of popularity in the early sixties but The Spotnicks provided a unique sound and broad international appeal born of an innate sense of fun that would see them outlast almost all of their contemporaries.
In Roland Fereneborg that had a manager who was passionate and enthusiastic. He groomed, choreographed and packaged his charges and was decisive in exploiting their potential; sending them out on long tours to England, France, Spain, Mexico, The United States and Japan The response was enormous and so began a career of the biggest selling Swedish pop group after Abba.
