Anders Ekborg's finally releasing new album "Painted Dreams" awaited since Spring after his participance in this year Melodifestivalen with Tony Nilsson's song "The Saviour" and gives opportunity to check all tracks from it. Mostly it's classic Anders' repertoire - musical-breathing, soulful, anthemic, 90s smelling songs quite modern sounding though to be enjoyable. No need to say that vocal of Anders works 100% on every track. So all stuff - thoughtful classic ballads (Promise, You´re always here, No One Has To Hurt, Painted Dreams), rhythmic positive schlager-songs (You Were The One, The Saviour), summerish nostalgic retro-pop (I Do Believe, I Come Unarmed), calm acoustic pop (Ensam i natten, Allting som hon gör) deserves attention being quite charming and delicate music. Check below all tracks from the album and new video for title-track - "Painted Dreams".

It's always nice to know that movement given to artist by Melodifestivalen is not wasted and stimulates his creative activity and releasing new stuff. New Anders Ekborg's single "I Do Believe" is out on July 7th. Anders Ekborg is known mostly as musical artist who has become famous by roles in some big projects like Chess, Kristina från Duvemåla, Jekyll and Hyde, Evita, Jesus Christ Superstar. Keeping his music career constantly active he was touring a lot around Sweden and finally released solo-album "Äkta Vara" in 2006. This Spring Anders entered the stage of Melodifestivalen with song of Tony Nilsson "The Saviour" and though his performance has got a good response from public it didn't went good for him and he hasn't reached the final. However after MF he started recording his new album "Painted Dreams" and before this release he presented another new single "I Do Believe" - pleasant nostalgic latino-ballad with simple video showing some summer shots. Anders is going to make a tour around Sweden whole Summer and will release his album in Autumn.
