The Mobile Homes was formed in Sätra, Sweden in 1984 by brothers Andreas and Patrik Brun, Per Liliefeldt, and singer Hans Erkendal. At first there where many bands playing in the same premises, but later there was only a few left, and the Mobile Homes were born.
Early in their carreer Mobile Homes supported both Laibach and Nitzer Ebb on their Scandinavian tours.
The band has been signed under many labels. It started with Papa Records, but that company didn’t last for long, so they had to search for a new label.
The band contacted Swedish popstar Christer Sandelin and signed to his label called Alpha. At Alpha they released the single “I know I will die”, and after that they signed to Sonet.
Later they changed record company again, and this time they signed up with Hawk Records. At Hawk they released the albums “Hurt” remixed by Denniz Pop, “Nothing But Something” produced by Christian Falk, “Test” produced by Joolz Beeston (ex Nitzer Ebb) and “Meanwhile”. Check your Domain Name here.
