Editor's note

The Ark's flamboyant Swedish rock and pop cabaret

A Swedish band that mixed rock with pop and cabaret elements, known for Ola Salo's theatrical stage presence.

For a good sense of their sound, try 'Father of a Son' or 'Dream On'. They're the kind of band that makes more sense once you've heard a couple tracks.

They had a particular sound that found an audience in Sweden and beyond, with songs like 'Father of a Son' showing their blend of rock and theatrical pop. Their third album 'In Lust We Trust' arrived in 2000, and they toured extensively across European festivals. The band's recorded work includes albums like 'State of the Ark' from 2002 and 'Prayer for the Weekend' from 2007.

The Ark formed in 1991 in Rottne, Sweden, with their debut album 'We Are the Ark' coming out in 1996. They announced they were breaking up in 2011, then got back together for some live shows in 2022.
