Swedish AOR band Grand made a strong entry onto the global melodic rock scene with their self-titled debut in 2022. Featuring catchy hooks, lush production and timeless melodies grounded in classic influences like Starship, Foreigner, Toto etc, the album positioned Grand firmly within the Scandinavian AOR tradition. Following the positive reception of their debut, Grand returned in 2024 with Second To None, further deepening their signature melodic rock sound. In 2025, Grand grew from their original trio into a five-piece powerhouse with the addition of three new members. Founding members Mattias Olofsson (vocals), Jakob Svensson (guitars) were joined by Johannes Arvidsson (bass), Maja Thorén (keyboards) and Axel Nilsson (drums). Grand consistently emphasize the close and meaningful relationship they share with their audience, often pointing to the wide reach of their fans. The ongoing exchange with listeners remains a key source of motivation for the band. Grand is now preparing to release their third studio album, Guilty Pleasure. Written and recorded during an incredibly productive period, this forthcoming album represents the next evolution of their sound and will be the first to introduce Grand as a full five‑piece lineup. Together with their previous releases, it reflects a sound rooted in classic melodic rock while continuing to push the genre forward through passion, attention to detail, and a strong bond with fans around the world.
