MX Rockbar: JTR. Who are they?
 
The other week, I went to Alingsås to see JTR. You probably don't know who they are, so I will give you a quick review about who this new band is.
 
"JTR is a Swedish band containing three brothers John, Tom and Robin. They are mainly famous for their participation in the Australian X-Factor 2013 where they came top 7. JTR have been touring around Australia where they also have released their debutalbum "Touchdown". Now they are signed at Sony Music for the Nordic countries and are back in Sweden to promote their first single "Ride". The plan is to release their album in Sweden later this year. On 14th of July they are going to perform for the first time on Swedish television at "Lotta på Liseberg"."
  
 
As I wrote before, I went to Alingsås to see the guys perform for the first time.
 
JTR did a set of songs both from their own album, but also some covers as "Lego house" by Ed Sheeran. They were much better on stage than I thought they would be and interacted quite well with the audience. Such a shame that the stage was a bit small since it limited their movement.

After the show, they had this signing where everyone could get a photo and autographs. Since Alingsås is their hometown, a lot of their friends and family came as well to say hi. They were very sweet and really took their time to talk to everyone. It was fun to see how many fans they had there, despite that they haven't really done anything in Sweden yet.
