"Tiny Island was formed by Goran Wennerbrandt in 1989, but on their collaboration with blues artist Eric Bibb in 1993 went under the name of "Needed Time" with basically the same members. During the years 1994 to 1998 either Goran Wennerbrandt or the whole band toured regularly with Eric Bibb in both Europe and Canada.
On this, Tiny Island's debut album, they play instrumental music with ingredients from near and far - warm island breezes, a trace of oriental spice and Nordic mood. All the music has been composed by members of the band with the exception of one piece by Taj Mahal.
"A stone church from the 13th century out in the Swedish countryside. Visions, influences and our own heritage blended together. Beautiful ambience and a peaceful atmosphere. One microphone and our instruments. This is what we played..." - Tiny Island
