Turboweekend
Turboweekend formed in Copenhagen in 2006, as a lovechild between the underground rock scene and the increasingly popular electronic club scene of the northern capital.

They signed with CPH Rec in 2007 and released their much praised debut album Night Shift in Denmark that same October.

Emitting a powerful current of disco-rock, low-end indie pop, and electrical soul, the band has played for enthusiastic crowds at dripping rock venues, festivals, and raving clubparties in Denmark, Sweden, Germany and the US, sharing the bill with acts such as Midnight Juggernauts, Boys Noize and Stricken City.

The band released their second album march 2009, about which danish grand-old-dj Kjeld Tolstrup has said ”it makes The Killers taste like a sloppy burger with too much cheese and too little meat”. Where the debut album of 2007 took the underground craze into the public, with three singles on national radio, and nominations as Best Act of The Year in the two biggest award shows in Denmark (P3 Gold and Zulu Awards), the new album presents a mature songwriting and production, with roots and branches far beyond any narrow sub culture. References might include Genesis (the middle stuff), Depech Mode, and The Rapture. But hear for yourself.

The album, entitled Ghost Of A Chance, was released in Denmark, and on iTunes world wide, through Mermaid Rec (Sony/BMG), March 2009.
