The Bridal Shop, formed in Sweden in the early 2000s, are a Swedish ensemble whose lush, New Order-influenced dream pop compositions place them in league with contemporaries like the Radio Dept. and Celestial. Comprised of members Ida, Karl, Daniel, Peter, and Toomas, the group self-released their first album, a CD-R called From Seas, in 2006. An EP on Cloudberry, Bay the Moon, followed soon after. The Bridal Shop were picked up by Seattle's Magic Marker Records the following year, and their debut CD-R was re-packaged and re-released on that label. The band had another EP, In Violation, out on Cloudberry by the spring of 2008. Two more tracks by the Bridal Shop, &Cloudkick& and &Ideal State,& came out on a Happy Robots compilation disc later that year.
