Johnny Beam Rockin' Trio was founded in Gnesta, a small town a bit beyond walking distance from Stockholm, Sweden, in spring 2002. What was aimed to be for fun and recreation rapidly grew to a high octane, neo-style rockabilly trio renowned for exciting live performances. Pelle helped the band with managing and parental guidance and thanks to him we became well reputed among swedish so called "raggare" all over the country. Soon we decided to write our own songs, with the goal of making a record. In may 2004 it became true, when the Buddy Love-produced album "Let's Go!" was released at Buddy Love Records. In september 2005 Mattias Hellman was found standing behind the drums. Now things really started to happen. Soon a bunch of very good rockin' songs were recorded and in April 2006 the second album "Werewolf Rock" was released. The summer of 2006 looked exciting for us. In July an appearence at the Live 'n' Jive festival finally came true, a gig the band has struggled for since the beginning. A few weeks after that we were booked for the Valga Cruising in Estonia. That would be the first time for the Rockin' Trio to meet an audience outside the country. Tragically, Johnny suddenly died just a week before the Valga-trip after complications of his diabetes. The Johnny Beam Rockin' Trio was disbanned.
