Biography

Nyköping, Sweden (2001 – present)

Tiger Lou is the main project of singer/songwriter Rasmus Kellerman from Nyköping, Sweden, founded in 2001.

He debuted the autumn of 2003 with the EP Trouble And Desire on legendary Swedish independent label Startracks. The EP included the track Sam, As In Samantha for which a dramatic and striking video was made by director Magnus Renfors. Interest came quickly both in Sweden and abroad. The EP was released the same autumn in the US on the Parasol label. Straight after the EP’s release Rasmus set out on a month long solo tour stateside and also had time to squeeze in a tour of Germany with only this EP released.

Tiger Lou is also involved in several other musical constellations: Araki, Las Puertas (along with his wife Andrea, Firefox AK) and Yun Bao to name a few.

The album Is my head still on? was released the spring of 2004 which included the singles and videos Oh Horatio, Sell out and The war between us. The feedback was excellent and Tiger Lou was nominated “Newcomer of the Year” at the Swedish alternative music awards Manifest and the video for “Oh Horatio”, again directed by Magnus Renfors, was nominated for a Swedish Grammi in the “Best Video” category. Tiger Lou continued to tour both with a band and as a solo act. A long tour with Weeping Willows in Scandinavia, solo shows and additional band tours covering Germany, Holland, Austria and Belgium followed. Slowly but surely a strong and loyal fan base was building.

The touring band consists of Pontus Levahn on drums, Erik Welén on bass and Mathias Johansson on guitar.

    "The War Between Us" and "All I Have" are way better than "Oh Horatio"

    så jävla bra. tänk över beslutet att lägga ner Tiger Lou. ni har något unikt och musik är ju något man inte slutar med. best of luck!

    As Rasmus wrote: "What is finally dawning on me is the fact that the Tgr Lou saga is soon coming to an end. Last weekend we played our last two shows in Sweden, for what might just turn out to be; forever. Or at least for a few years. We have three more shows to go in Germany at the end of July, and then we're off doing whatever it is we do, on a given normal day, for a very long time." Most likely they stopped playing and will never go back to Tiger Lou but maybe, in a long long time they will come back for more live shows.

    It is definately time for a new Tiger Lou tour! [2] and an album. The last one was totally unexpected dark, atmospheric, simply a 50 Minutes track <3
