Biografia:
Formada originalmente em 1997, a Siena Root, banda sueca de rock retrô, extraiu seu nome, estranhamente, do tom terroso da cidade de Toscana – uma misteriosa explicação, para dizer o mínimo, uma vez que o quarteto, de inspiração setentista, executa uma fusão de rock pesado, progressivo e psicodélico, que pouco tem a ver com o país itálico (mas, paciência, foi a sua escolha).
Constituída por Oskar Lundström, vocalista e organista, KG West, guitarrista e vocalista, Sam Riffer, baixista e vocalista, e Love H. Fosberg, baterista, a Siena Root conquistou sua fama gradualmente, através de anos de apresentações ao vivo e atividades dedicadas às composições, que renderam, ao fim e ao cabo, um contrato com a gravadora Rage of Achilles Records e o lançamento do seu primeiro disco, "A New Day Dawning", em 2004 (Eduardo Rivadavia, AllMusic; tradução livre do inglês).
