Mårran is a Swedish rock group formed in 2010 in Stockholm, Sweden. == History == The band was formed in 2010 by Morgan Korsmoe and Ludwig Larsson (both born 1989). Morgan grew up playing bass in his father's band Larz Kristerz but had a heavy urge for the rock music of the 1970s and wanted to start a group playing hard rock/blues rock. Morgan and guitarist Ludwig recruited drummer Björn "Binge" Inge (born 1952) from the legendary Swedish hard-rock band November (the Swedish Cream and the first band to sing hard-rock in Swedish in the early 1970s), Hammond organ player Max Lorentz (known for his work as producer and musician for very many artists in Sweden and Denmark) and the legendary rock vocalist Göran Edman, world known for his work with amongst others Yngwie Malmsteen. The group decided to write their own material in their native tongue of Swedish. October 2011 saw the release of Mårran's debut CD-single "Gärdesbrud" on Blind Boyscout Records in a limited edition of 500 copies.
