The Baseballs - Candy Shop


The Baseballs visited Sweden last week, including a gig at Klubben here in Stockholm, the cuddly boys did a nice appearance with their cheerful rockabilly, the crowd was absolutely crazy. Had a sauna chat with "Basti" which had been completely sold on this washing invention and have invested in a sauna at home in germany.
Basti said that the standard accessories to a sauna was quite impossible to buy at home. So he was really happy when he could find these things at the hardware store here in Stockholm.



The Baseballs are a German rock and roll band founded in Berlin in 2007. They became popular with rock cover versions of modern hits such as "Umbrella" by Rihanna and "Hot n Cold" by Katy Perry.

In 2010 the band supported guitarist Jeff Beck on his "Emotion and Commotion" tour as his opening act.

On first August 2011 The Baseballs released together with General Mills – the producer of the ice cream Häagen-Dazs – within an advertising campaign with Cosma Shiva Hagen a free download of the song "Wha Wha" – which was written especially for the campaign. The track is freely available and can be downloaded from the german site of the brand Häagen-Dazs, or click here to get it!
