Biography

British indie pop group Passport to Stockholm formed in 2013 around the talents of songwriters Chris Barnard and Tom Piggott, old friends who had previously been playing and recording as an acoustic duo. After completing their lineup with cellist Mariona De Lamo and percussionist Henri Grimes, they began developing a sound that blended indie folk and classical elements with bold, Coldplay-esque pop and electronic elements. After successfully crowd-funding their first EP, things began moving quickly for the band as they received plenty of support in London and embarked on a couple of European tours. Their debut EP, All at Once, was released in August 2015, making waves on both sides of the atlantic. Tom stepped back from the band to battle addiction, then Mariona was hospitalised for 3 months in Spain, this led to Chris and Barney putting the band on hiatus, Chris emerging as the featured vocalist on Mauro Picotto’s Mexican chart topping smash “Ayala” and Henri forming the break core band Shitwife (now called “Big Lad”). 
 Chris and Henri reformed as PTS with new guitarist, Telmo for a run of European dates in 2015 and all has been quiet…Until this summer. The original lineup, along with Telmo toured the US, with sell out shows in Los Angeles legendary “Troubadour”, along with a final 2 night residency in London. 
 Let’s hope they’re not done yet
