Bassist Henrik Linder with Dirty Loops, live at The Cannery in Nashville

Bassist Henrik Linder with Dirty Loops, on the Mainstage at The Cannery in Nashville, April 2, 2024.

Dirty Loops were founded in 2008 by three friends, Aron Mellergård, Jonah Nilsson, and Henrik Linder, as an experiment to try things beyond what was considered allowed in normal musical sessions. After two years of altering pop tunes the band decided to upload a cover version of Lady Gaga’s ”Just Dance” on YouTube in order to, perhaps, get a gig or two. More cover videos were released and gained a lot of momentum, which eventually led to a record deal working with Andreas Carlsson and David Foster.

The first album "Loopified" was released in 2014, containing mostly original songs. Upon its release, Dirty Loops embarked on a world tour as a headline act and as support for Maroon 5.

In 2020 the album "Phoenix" was released and in 2021 Dirty Loops collaborated with Cory Wong and released their co-album "Turbo."

This was part of their first USA/Canada tour in 10 years.
