The true essence of a really good rock´n´roll-band is having fun while you're kicking ass on stage. Well, it does sound like Chillihounds in a nutshell.
The high adrenaline band began in Gothenburg in 2003. The main reason for it was to make a great rock band that wasn't in it for fashion or to be hip. So, no fashion just rock´n´roll is one of the cornerstones in the Chillihounds philosophy.
Gabriel Adland and Daniel Hessel where the founders of the band, and the ones who set the path. But off course they needed some highway warriors to make their dream possible and to develop the true raw retro sound.
Stefan Johansson who is a sucker for 70´s rock presented himself almost immediately after the start. "He´s got it, he's in", where the quoted words of the founders. After some gigging with bass players such as Robert Kulka and David Kalin the main man stepped into the rehearsal room. "Hello I´m Carlos Satanos, let´s rock!". Carlos Satanos came from the band Rickshaw and we all just started playing mighty riffs in cool poses. After a while we stopped. "Hey Carlos, you´re in!"
So now the four piece army of thunderous rock is to be reckoning with.
Watch out, Chillihounds could soon be in a town near you!
NO FASHION, JUST ROCK´N´ROLL!!!

Why this name?
Roaring dogs and hot music. Need to know more?
Do you play live?
We've played most of the big clubs in our hometown Gothenburg but have also rocked the socks of people in European countries like Germany.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Everyone has the possibility to search for bands they would never have heard of if it wasn't for the internet. It's easier for bands to spread their music around the world, even without a record deal.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Of course that would be a great possibility to get proffesional and economical help to get our music out to the people.
