Other bands and album Christian have been involved in are Audiovision, Golden Resurrection, Wisdom Call, Borderline, Modest Attraction, Flagship and he has done a couple of albums in Swedish under his own name. The Melodic Passion album is the first album where Christian is involved in every moment of the album such as composing all the songs together with Stephen Carlson and been writing all the lyrics and also as producer together with Olov Andersson & Viktor Stenqvist. Christian has a great solo band behind this album. Stephen Carlson – Electric and acoustic guitars (Brotthogg, Tales, The Rise, Gil Edwards) Olov Andersson – Keyboards (Audiovison, Grand Stand & Ex. Veni Domine) Andreas Johansson – Drums (Narnia, Royal Hunt, Avatarium, Doomday Kingdom, Ex Rob Rock) Per Schelander - Bass (House of Shakira, Astrakhan, ex, Royal Hunt & Pain of Salvation) The producer team is Christian Liljegren together with long time friend Olov Andersson who handles the keyboards on this album. He played with Christian in Audiovision and they have done tours together as duo with piano and vocals where they perform classics in Swedish but also with Queen, John Miles etc. They both are huge record collectors and share this passion to create this album called Melodic Passion. To get the perfect sound Viktor Stenqvist is the third and very important man in this production. He is the sound engineer for Narnia and mixed the last studio album From Darkness To Light and he has just did an amazing live concert recording with Avatarium The album Melodic Passion delivers hardrock/metal in the finest way with great songwriting and produced in a great way like the big legends from the past. We get memorable songs done with virtuous guitar playing from Stephen Carlson and powerful vocals and backing vocals from Christian. The rhytm section with Andreas & Per is so solid with so much excitement in their playing then add Olov majestic keyboards on Moog, Hammond organ, Taurus and other keyboards and you get a complete album filled with great songs and passion. Then one of the finest piece of music on the album is the ballad “This is my love song” and Svante Henryson plays the cello. He used to play with Yngwie Malmsteen during the Eclipse & Fire & Ice era and he did great bass & cello on when Metallica got the Polar Prize in Stockholm. Svante brings something extra to the song and will be involved on the video as well as This is my love song is the 1:st single/video from the album. We live in a chaotic world where it is hard to find peace but Christian Liljegren?s album Melodic Passion will be an album to get strength from in these strange times of Covid-19. On this album Melodic Passion Christian has used his long time friend Narnia’s axeman CJ Grimmark for mastering the album as he is a master of sound. Christian is very excited to meet the media and fans and of course to perform these songs live worldwide when things will be better in the world. Christian Liljegren is back with one of the most powerful album in a long time and he ends with these words. Take care, stay safe and God Bless!
