The Ark is tagged as: swedish, glam rock, rock, pop, indie The Ark is a glam rock band from Sweden. The band was formed in 1991 by Ola Salo, Jepson, and Lasse “Leari” Ljungberg. Martin Axén joined the band in 1997, and Sylvester Schlegel in ‘99. Jens Andersson was the last one to officially join, in October 2006. Jens is a familiar face from many The Ark gigs, as he has played the keyboard with the band for several years. Their lyrics are mostly written by singer Ola Salo, and many of them are controversial, especially the earlier ones. For example, the 2002 single Father Of A Son is about homosexuals’ right to have children. The band tour Scandinavia, Germany and Italy regularly and were one of the support acts to The Darkness on their 2006 UK tour. The Ark participated in, and won, the Swedish Melodifestivalen 2007 with the song “The Worrying Kind”, written by Ola Salo. The song was also Sweden’s Eurovision 2007 entry and is included on their fourth album, Prayer For The Weekend. |Members: * Ola Salo (lead singer)|* Mikael Jepson (guitar)|* Martin Axén (guitar)|* Lasse Ljungberg (bass)|* Sylvester Schlegel (drums)|* Jens Andersson (keyboard) So far they have released four studio albums and an EP: * Racing with the Rabbits - 1996|* We Are The Ark - 2000|* In Lust We Trust - 2002|* ...
