Tomorrow: Deportees + Winhill/Losehill at Debaser Malmö
Tomorrow night at Debaser Malmö is our final It's a Trap! Clubnight of the year and gracing the stage will be Sweden's favorite critically lauded yacht-rockers Deportees. Joining them as support, Stockholm/Umeå-based up-and-comers Winhill/Losehill who just released their debut single "Tell her she's the light of the world". Not gonna lie, this sort of intentionally gentle rock is not my thing at all, but I'll give 'em the benefit of the doubt that they totally bring it live. Only one way to find out!
