FROM DREAM TO REALITY
Patrik Dahlbom, percussionist from Kristianstad
has finally made his dream come true. During the
spring of 1997 he gathered a group of professional
musicians and talented amteurs together and they
started to rehearse. As some of them were music
teachers the idea was to introduce Frank Zappa's
music to the younger generation of music students.
Initially working under the project title "Frankly Zappa"
they put on a few instrumental school conserts.
The respons was overwhelmingly positiv and
the guys knew this was only the beginning..........
The following year they realized it was necessary
to add a singer to the group. After having "looked all
over the world" they found Per Lundberg in Kristianstad!
Zapway was born and they were united in an enthusiastic
celebration of the great Frank Zappa. The magnificent
opening night at Kristianstad international jazz festival,
ninth July 1998, was the proof of an extraordinary
successful constellation.
Zapway now presents the best of Zappa's repertoire
with songs like Echidna's arf, Montana and Catholic girls,
or as themselves express it:
With a mix of musical precision and a lot of humor
in the spirit of Zappa we are now ready to enrich
the life of everyone who appreciates
great music and a good laugh.
