Biography

All the great bands and artist know where they come from and where they are headed, and FATBOY is a prime example of such a band. When they started out they came from bands in different music genres with an idea that they now were old enough to be able to play country music. It is not a kids game you know. They played cover versions by great country artists like Faron Young and Patsy Cline, but soon some of their own compositions started to turn up in the repertoir as well. Their first record was a raw and dark rockabilly album called Steelhearted. Then they moved to a more versatile mood on the follow up In My Bones, on to the heavy duty engine of Overdrive The exotic and voodoo flavoured album Love Creole even gained interrest from Hollywood personalities like Tim Burton and Quentin Tarantino. Their album Moments is a dark and brooding excursion into a more cinematic landscape. The red thread following the path of FATBOY is that they combine old and new music influences in the most extraordinary ways, and with no restrictions or boundaries. Diggin’The Scene is released in 2019 at the psykbunkern label. After more than 25 years of playing together they still have a strong sense of moving forward and their new path has led them to a new label and a new studio , the legendary Enviken studios. ”The Storm” is recorded in May-2022 by Patrik Staffansson and released September 16 at ENVIKEN RECORDS.
