Sylvie’s Head

Formed in Gothenburg in early 2024, Sylvie’s Head have quickly established themselves as
one of Sweden’s most exciting new bands. Blending breakbeats, chainsaw guitars, dub,
post-punk and euphoric club culture into a sound entirely their own, the four-piece occupy a
space where underground dance music collides with explosive rock & roll.

Their debut EP “Sharp Shooter”, followed by the singles “Godstar”, “Frankie” and “Pure
Control”, rapidly built a reputation for a band whose incendiary live shows were every bit as
captivating as their recordings. The momentum earned them a nomination for Best Rock at
the 2026 Manifest Awards and appearances at leading showcase festivals including The
Great Escape, Focus Wales, Sharpe Festival and Colours of Ostrava, alongside headline
shows across Sweden and Europe.

Released in 2026, their debut album “Everything Is Free” marked a major breakthrough. The
record received widespread acclaim from Sweden’s leading newspapers and music
publications, including Dagens Nyheter, Svenska Dagbladet, Göteborgs-Posten and
Aftonbladet, while the single Pure Control was selected as Hit of the Week on Swedish
national radio P3, earning heavy national airplay.

Internationally, the band have been championed by BBC Radio 6 Music, Radio X and
Amazing Radio, with continued support from presenters including John Kennedy, Amy Lamé
and Chris Hawkins. The album has also received extensive editorial backing from Spotify
and Apple Music, including the cover of Spotify’s Indie Highlights, placements on New Music
Friday in Sweden and Norway, Fresh Finds Nordics, and numerous flagship editorial
playlists.

On stage, Sylvie’s Head have become known for performances that are as euphoric as they
are unpredictable. Combining the pulse of rave culture with the intensity of post-punk and
psychedelic rock, the band transforms every show into a volatile collision of rhythm, noise and
release. With a rapidly growing international profile, Sylvie’s Head are emerging as one of
the most distinctive new acts to come out of Scandinavia in recent years.
