The Nomads (Swedish band)

After releasing a number of records in the 1980s, the Nomads toured extensively and built a large fanbase without any significant rotation on either radio or television. In 2001, they celebrated their 20th anniversary with a gig in Stockholm that included appearances by members from Bob Hund, Sator, the Flaming Sideburns, Robert Johnson, and Punchdrunks, as well as members of the original lineup. At their gig at the Hultsfred Festival, the band once again took the opportunity to celebrate, with guest appearances by Nick Royale, Chips Kiesbye, Handsome Dick Manitoba, Ross the Boss, Jello Biafra, Chris Bailey, Odd Ahlgren, and Wayne Kramer. 20 Years Too Soon – A Tribute to the Nomads, was released in 2003, with bands like the Hellacopters, Electric Frankenstein, the Dictators, the Robots, Bob Hund, and Nitwitz contributing with their own version of their favorite Nomads songs. In 2008, the Nomads shared the stage with Roky Erickson at the Peace & Love festival in Sweden. ==Discography==
