STONECAKE was formed in July 1988 in Borlänge, Sweden, by guitarist/singer Tommy Liljegren (previously Andersson) & drummer Marcus Källström.
By 1990, Klas Hägglund had joined on bass. Wire Records signed them that year, and their debut album Under the Biketree was released at the end of 1991. It was produced by the now world famous Jacob Hellner (signed Rammstein, Clawfinger, among many others).
Stonecake’s first single Tuesday Afternoon quickly become a smash hit and enjoyed a great deal of airtime in Sweden and neighbouring countries. Stonecake won a Grammy for “best newcomers” in 1992 and toured Northern Europe considerably in the next coming years.
The follow up albums Acoustic Toilets (1993) and In The Middle Of Nowhere (1995) where also released in Japan. Per Mårtensson replaced Klas on bass 1994.
The 4th album Some people was released on Stonecake’s own label, "Acoustic Toilets Records", in 2000. It scored good reviews in the southwest USA, which resulted in three overseas tours in 2001-2002.
Stonecake celebrated 30 years since the success of “Under the Biketree”. Klas returned to the band. The December 2022 concert in Borlänge, was recorded and is soon to be released as “30 Years Anniversary Live”.
