We sure rocked the boat last night!

30 Jan
Hey fakers!

It was nice to see some old faces and some new ones at the Jack Rocks finals yesterday. We had a blast and did a very short, intense and energetic set before we sat down in the green room and sipped on our beers and chatted with fellow musicians and new fans. These cruises are a very, very strange phenomenon – it’s not like playing at just any other club, ’cause most of the people there are absolutely and completely hammered. For any non-Swedish people that are interested in anthropological studies – take a ferry cruise!

Anyhow, the event was really great and it was a good start to the new year as well as a little warm-up show for tomorrow’s big event up in Umeå. See you there!

Hey fakers!

We just got word that we’re going to play the Amplified festival in Umeå on Friday. This is our first show that far north in Sweden and we’re very psyched about getting to go there! We’ll be joining up with Johnossi, La Puma, I Are Droid and many other great bands. See you there!

Hello fakers!

Hope you all had a safe holiday.

Did you know that we’ve got our very own band page on Facebook? Just log on to your Facebook account and make a search for The Genuine Fakes, or just follow this link and click on “Become a fan” to get the latest updates, listen to our music, check out fan photos etc.

It would be a great help to us also because we’re in a competition where the bands with the most “fans” on Facebook gets to have two songs on a compilation album due out in a couple of months.

Cheers!
