Kristofer Åström
Fireside is a Swedish rock band that formed in the Swedish hardcore scene in the early 1990s. After finding moderate success as a post-grunge/alternative rock band, yet tiring of playing half-filled venues, Fireside adopted an emo/pop punk sound in 1998. In 2000, with the release of Elite, the band took a more experimental approach to rock, but 2003's All You Had saw the band shift towards garage rock.
