Biography
1. a progressive rock band hailing from Sweden and
2. a French dance group.
3. a four-piece indie rock group based in Adelaide, Australia.
1. Galleon started as a three piece named Aragon back in ´85 , experimenting with different kind of music and musicians , but never really found the “right” feeling. . .
Because Micke Värn, guitars - Göran Fors, bass and Vocals and Dan Fors, drums had the idea , they wanted at least to document their sweat and blood in composing the music they believed in under so many years , just in case . . .
When Galleon started to send around their first demo tapes under the name Aragon back in -89 , they initially got a friendly response but also a demand to change their name.
After they had come up with the name Galleon and was actually working on their first album , the drummer Dan Fors injured his foot badly and the album was delayed for six months…
During the recording sessions the Producer and Keyboard player Ulf Pettersson had joined the band , but left just before releasing LYNX-93, leaving them as a three piece band with music arranged for four.
After trying several different keyboard players with only the good response and sales of the CD keeping them from giving up , Ulf rejoined the band , which allowed them to play live and gave new dimensions to the song writing.

pff and again a reason for last.fm to include functions to separate profiles of artists with the same name so some day there won't be profile mixes like prog rock with house, prog rock with rac or crap like that (-,-)

Where did Galleon go? The album "So I Begin" is awesome, but it would be even more awesome if they make a new album.

The real Galleon (I mean french dance group) is simply amazing! They creat such a beautifull melodies that embrace you and fill you with a joy! Honestly, I think they are one of the best electronic acts ever. Now, what's with this progressive rock crap no one heard of? Can we move them to some other place? Because just by looking at the Top Tracks it is obvious that they don't belong here.
