One winter day 2004 Lollipop and Exploseve, who worked together at the time, said,
"Lets start a pop band!".
And so they did.
The first song On the telly was a hit, but Lollipop and Exploseve realized that it would probably sound even better including bass, synth and maybe even a second guitar. They were lucky. On the dancefloor Exploseve found Electrodeva. It was the perfect match. At the same time at a birthday party Lollipop found Poppawemma.
The Koo-Koos made some really great pop songs, but the need for a second guitar-player felt urgent. And then, one rainy autumn night 2004, came the knight in shiny armour they all been waiting for. It was Cookie. She was wonderful.
From these five girls came a couple of great power pop songs. For example Nightlife, Dancefloor, Sweet and Je taime. Everyone loved the Koo-Koos.
But then, in April 2006 Poppawemma dropped the bomb. The other girls wanted to cry when she suddenly said,
"I feel it would be better if we were just friends"
But the Koo-Koos are just so full of love that nothing can break them. Instead of crying for the loss of Poppawemma, they made a song.and it was great....
And it didnt take long for the band to find another bass-player. Tootsie was a fan and when she heard the news, she joined the band at once!
To contact The Koo-koos outside myspace please send an email to: thekookoos@gmail.com
we just stoppin to say hi. We have some rest here at myspace during our rehearsals. You need some time to pause, just to find power again. How are you? Hope fine! Wish you a great week. Enjoy the time...

Hi Koo-koos! Thanks so much for your friendship & support! I just wanted to let you know that my new e.p. “Paper Box” is available now on itunes. Drop me a line and let me know how you’re doing! Visit http://www.tunecore.com/music/gayleskidmore for a link to my itunes site. Cheers! Gayle Skidmore
Ja what the heck is that alla about??? Stop messing with me! ;-) Jag och snäckan har skaffat boende i Sthlm nu, i form av en stuga på Värmdö. Spännande med Slovakien. Hur fick ni till det? Synd att du inte fortsätter med projektledarskapet för Popkollo måste jag säga.. mycket synd.. :-(
thanks loads for the compliment. i have to admit that i keep getting interrupted in my listening, maybe its because its got a lot of tracks and I'm only making half an hour drives in the car and so I don't quite get to the end. So after that long boring story I admit that I haven't quite got to your track yet but I will make an effort tonight! your photo looks awesome by the way! sweden is definitely in my top 10 places to visit so hopefully one day we will tour there ... thanks for commenting and stay in touch love ben@happenstance
hey there! nice to be seeing you online after hearing you on the powerpop compilation. hope you had a great christmas and new years. cheers ben@happenstance
Sunshine Rabbits är lika med Itchy, Lost, Confusion och Hormone. Bakom aliasen finns Cecilia Nordlund, Lotta Wenglén och två andra tjejer som är drivande i Malmös musik- och kulturliv, på scen och bakom scen. Tillsammans en totalt galen explosion av ... kaninbeats.
Down In June gör känslosamma tolkningar av Death In June-låtar och består den här kvällen av Andreas Catjar, Erica Li Lundqvist och Anders Carlsson från tidigare Teater Terrier, en musikaliskt högintressant trio.
