Album Of The Week

"Lazy Afternoon plays as smooth as hot fudge poured over a big scoop of vanilla ice cream. Their hot rhythmic style modernizes many traditional type approaches that are infectious to the ears. They boast 3 lead singers, just like The Band."

- John Apice / Americana Highways -

"Lazy Afternoon released their 3rd studio album in May 2022. The band from Gotland, Sweden, who play an exciting mix of americana, country, folk, rock and tex mex has finally got their new album ready for the world. The new album spreads the music a bit in all directions, but at the same time it is typically Lazy Afternoon. The sound is tighter, more modern and a bit tougher."

- Kenneth Bremer / Blue Desert -

" I think the stronger and most immediate tracks on 'Just As Poor As Before' are those on which Cristina Säfsten sings lead, but the album overall makes for enjoyable listening for whatever lazy afternoon you have planned."

- Mike Davies / Fatea Magazine -

"With summer and sunshine coming soon, music fans can upgrade their holidays by listening to the excellent 3rd album from Swedish Lazy Afternoon. On ‘Just As Poor As Before’ they are enthousiastically showing off their great skills to play americana, folk, rock, country, cajun and tex mex music in 13 self composed songs. Fun, fun, fun guaranteed!“
