Nearly twenty years have passed since Crucified Barbara released the debut album, and to celebrate the anniversary of the hard rock jewel In Distortion We Trust, Crucified Barbara will reunite on stage for the first time in ten years. The band’s comeback will debut at Sweden Rock Festival, taking place June 4-7, 2025.
From the release of their debut album In Distortion We Trust (2005) up until their split in 2016, Crucified Barbara became known as one of Sweden’s hardest-working hard rock bands, with countless touring miles across the globe. Whether playing in gritty rock clubs on four continents, under the spotlight of Melodifestivalen, or on numerous festival stages, they consistently showed how hard rock should be done.
Crucified Barbara is a band that has always walked its own path. A group unafraid of exploring both dark metal and heartfelt ballads, blending the soft and the heavy to create their own unique hard rock brew. Now, they’re back to once again deliver that brew live, in a celebration showcasing the best from their four albums: In Distortion We Trust (2005), ‘Til Death Do Us Party(2009), The Midnight Chase (2012), and In The Red (2014).
The band’s statement:
”It’s been a while, to say the least! Our last gig was almost ten years ago. The break has been much needed for all of us, but… our love for our music, for each other, and for our audience has never faded during these years, and we’re incredibly excited to play together again. We’ve already had some magical moments in the rehearsal room and are amazed at how our music still lives within us, longing to be played. We can’t wait to perform it live for you all again!
Love!
