Laundry Day Limited Vinyl LP

Two Year Vacation Laundry Day Limited Vinyl LP

Overview:

Two Year Vacation is the band that originates from its own contrast. The quintet founded in Gothenburg, Sweden's second city, a seaport known for its rain, headwind and grayness, makes rhythmic radio-friendly indie pop with musical influences ranging from ABBA to Fatboy Slim through early Daft Punk, MGMT, Arcade Fire, Vampire Weekend and Peter Björn & John. Two Year Vacation is about driving out all stale sense of the mundane.

In Gothenburg, historically being a scene for heavy metal, Two Year Vacation thrives from finding the bright colors in between the tones of grey. With inspiration from trivial daily routines, like the laundry day we’re all are familiar with, they make music that travels in a fascinating blend of Italo disco, rock and Caribbean kraut through easygoing joyful rhythms wrapped in tropical vibes.

After releasing two self-sustained EPs Two Year Vacation joined forces with the Hamburg based label Clouds Hill and Warner Music Germany. The result was the debut album ”Slacker Island” released in 2019. The album was preceded by, amongst others, the radio hit single ”Better Off Alone”, the dance floor filler ”Don’t Wanna Go Home” and the critics favorite ”I Forgot Your Name (But I Like You)”.

Whomping up a staggering four million streams ”Slacker Island” has also taken to the hearts of indie fans all around the globe. Whilst 2019 was a hectic year with both the release of their debut album as well as touring across Europe and with first performances in both the US and the UK, Two Year Vacation never rests. Even though the name implies the opposite, Two Year Vacation doesn’t take vacations. Hence 2020 has so far already seen the release of the singles ”Don’t Know Anybody Else” and ”Never Been To Paris”, as well as the four track EP ”Bedroom Rock”, the single "Getaway", "Django" and "Moving On From Yesterday".
