In February, Sahara Hotnights will go on tour and play a few select gigs – one of them at Mejeriet – for the first time in nine years. At the same time, the band will release the album “No One Ever Really Changes”, their first in four years. On November 14, the first taster, “Always Like This”, was released.
– I wrote it at home in bed one spring-winter morning on a rickety nylon-stringed guitar and then it blossomed when the whole band was seen in the rehearsal room and it had to sound the alarm and get ready, says Maria Andersson.
When Sahara Hotnights released “Love In Times of Low Expectations” in 2022, it was their first album in eleven years. Since their start in Robertsfors in 1992, the quartet has consisted of Maria Andersson (vocals, guitar), Jennie Asplund (guitar), Johanna Asplund (bass) and Josephine Forsman (drums). Critical acclaim, gold and platinum records and major tours both domestically and internationally have lined their path from their EP debut in 1997 onwards.
