Anton Svedbergs Swängjäng

Swedish music collective from Luleå in the 1970s that belonged to the prog movement. It was formed in 1972 and consisted mostly of 55 people. Their performances were made by a small number of people, which could be in the form of a pop band, a play band, a jazz band or a string quartet according to needs and wishes. However, when they played big band jazz, they were 30 people. The music was characterized by joy of play, some regionalism and a distancing from rectified and commercial music. Some of the members were also known from other groups such as Kornet, Norrbottens Järn, Norrlåtar and Rekyl. Among other members were the well-known music talent Per-Olov Åström (1955–1980) and Christer Engberg, in whose film "Lusten til een liv" (1999) Åström is the role model for Affe, and Andreas Aarflot. Several of the members also contributed to his solo album in 1978. Among the many members, however, there was no one named Anton Svedberg. According to a probably less credible statement, this person was said to be "... a notorious clarinetist, born from the Altervattnet. Even as a 75-year-old he began to enchant the audience in the home of the People's House. Last heard of, he was on his way to Rutviks Airport for a guest games in the US, but all the tracks end there as well. "
