Schema interviewsFresh Face | El Perro del Mar
The khol-rimmed doe eyes of Sarah Assbring are attached to the mouth of the sole member of Swedish export EL PERRO DEL MAR. Meaning "The dog of the sea" in Spanish, El Perro del Mar came to be in December 2003 in the town of Gothenburg.
Assbring began recording her lo-fi folk pop on Swedish label, Hybris, releasing Look! It's El Perro del Mar in 2005 and then a self-titled follow-up in 2006. The twilight, gentle ballads of El Perro del Mar caught the attention of another Swedish label, Licking Fingers, of which The Concretes are signed to. Assbring then recorded 2008's From the Valley to the Stars.
El Perro del Mar will be stopping in major cities across Canada this spring. Check out her sad, lo-fi pop (below the cut)!
