Karlsson Mats - The Time Optimist

The new album is a collection of songs that are a bit more laid back than the 220 Volt stuff, and move freely between rock, hardrock, singer/songwriter style and some AOR-touches here and there. It consists of 11 tracks, nine tracks penned by Mats, one by Mats co-written with Björn Höglund, and the album has a cover of the track "Real Gone" by Sheryl Crow/John Shanks. There are 2 duets where Mats shares the lead vocals with singer Jenny Fall, and one with "Frille" Åsell.
