New video for Major Investment

Major Investment is out

Heiko releases Major Investment, the band’s first single from their upcoming album.

The song was recorded in the fall of 2009 in the band’s studio in Espevik, Sweden and later mixed and mastered in Hammer Studios in Lerum, Sweden.

Major Investment is a song with roots in rock and country and blues scene of the 70s. It also points to some social awareness in the lyrics.

-The song really reflects the way we look at current events and the direction we’re heading in everyday society, says Johan Kalin, the band’s lead singer.

The band took their time fine-tuning the song in the studio in order to get the right feel and sound.

- It’s worth all the time and effort, says Ivan Ivarsson, the band drummer and producer. We all feel confident that our fans will recognize the true spirit of Heiko in this single.

We hope to be able to release this as a single. But Sissy Ven is a bit unpredictable so we can’t promise.

Sparkling reviewed by Progwereld.org

The review is written in dutch. By using Google Translate we can tell that they probably like the ep and they think Pocketful is a nice band, both statements are true so that’s nice. But you can never be to sure when using Google Translate.

Thanks for the review Progwereld.org!

From winter to snow

Happy new year, better late then never. We have all been very busy here at the Ovanbeck camp. But now we are back on track. Sweden is covered in snow and this winter has been the hardest since King Creole was on the charts. But we like it!

What’s going on
The Ovanbeck studio is on the move and will soon be unboxed. That will surly bring some great music our way.

Pocketful is doing hard work on their upcoming EP. Hopefully will we give you a treat from that one in the near future.

With the new Ovanbeck studio ready Heiko can go back into the studio and do the final mix of their upcoming single.

It is more than snow in the air folks. Best regards, Ovanbeck!
