The Dreamers are an Anglo/Swedish duo featuring Sarah Nyberg Pergament and Kevin Wright. Sarah has previously recorded as Action Biker and Kevin as Always and Mr. Wright. Meeting at a Swedish music festival in 2004 the pair began by writing a song “Petit Nuage” in late 2005. Encouraged by this an album began taking shape being recorded mostly in London with Sarah’s vocals being sent from Stockholm and Helsinki. The record is now finished and titled “Day for Night”. Top Swedish label Friendly Noise released it on October 2007. The band made their live debut at the Luminaire in London and more shows followed in Scandanavia.
The Dreamers influences combine many disparate elements including jazz pop and soundtrack music. Although the music is often melancholic the Dreamers hope to make (to paraphrase Michel Legrand speaking of Tom Jobim) “the sad music that makes the world a better place.”
(My song recommended for this album is Petit Nuage and So Near So Far)
