BIOGRAPHY
The story of Sparkling begins when the band along with 6 other underground bands was elected for the Starsearch project and were about to play their debut concert just one month later at the prestigious Spot08 Festival in Aarhus (DK). During that month Sparkling produced a full live set and were ready for their live debut.
The concert went terrific and Sparkling got excellent reviews. From that point it all accelerated: Sparkling was contacted by the international booking agency The Agency Group and signed a booking agreement.
From summer 2002 they started playing their first live-gigs under The Agency Group: Co-gig with Danish Music Awards 05 winner Mikael Simpson, national tour in Denmark with major Danish rock-act BAAL, Skanderborg Festival and various club shows.
During February 2003 Sparkling recorded their first single “As Time Goes By”.
Spring 2003… For the first time in the short life of the duo it was time to catch up on the past and plan the future. The back catalogue was roughly cleansed, new songs were written, the sound became more sharp and industrialized and the recording of Sparklings debut album “Waiting For An Accident” started.
Late summer 2003 Sparkling once again was invited to play at The Skanderborg Festival. At that point the duo had an expanded live set-up adding both guitars and live drums.
The remains of 2003 and the first months of 2004 Sparkling concentrated on recording producing and mixing the debut album.
The debut album “Waiting For An Accident” was released May 2004. Both first single “Could It Be Love?” and second single “Stay For A While” got airplay on DR P3. The album was distributed to labels, promoters etc. throughout Europe and got fine response, i.e. from major labels and managements in UK and Germany.
In August 2004 Sparkling was band of the week on https://www.tradebit.com, an international music industry community. And in late 2004 Sparkling was supporting German legends Alphaville at their Copenhagen gig.
During the recording sessions Sparkling send a pre-production of the album to the acclaimed Canadian producer Dave “Rave” Ogilvie (N:I:N, Bowie, Skinny Puppy, Marilyn Manson, N*E*R*D etc.).
Sparkling agreed with Ogilvie on a re-mix of the song “The Hunger” which was released to DJ’s and selected radio stations March 2005.
Sparkling is now working on their second album.
