SIRIUS Satellite Radio will spotlight the best music from Sweden and more with the launch of Nordic Rox produced under the creative guidance of Per Gessle. Nordic Rox will be hosted and programmed by Radio Stockholm on-air personality Viktor Petrovski, a prominent figure in the Swedish music scene. Also contributing to the program will be the lead singer of The Hives, Howlin’ Pelle Almqvist, and highly respected ABBA historian Carl Magnus Palm (on behalf of ABBA’s Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus).The first episode of Nordic Rox was broadcast on SIRIUS channel 18, The Spectrum, this past Sunday.
Nordic Rox will place a spotlight on the quality and depth of Scandinavian artists and music, which have never been exposed in this manner in the US. The show will also be the first place in the US to hear exciting new music emanating from Sweden and Scandinavian countries.
