History[edit]
1992: Underwhere forms[edit]
In 1992, a group of friends who were brought together by producer Joachim Nyberg and vocalist Robert Bävermalm, created a band based on their common interest for music.[3]
Their most prominent song of that time “Alison (Underwhere song)”, was said to be a favourite at Ales Nightclub, located in Nödinge-Nol, Sweden where they often had gigs.
1995: Underwhere breaks up[edit]
As life and other priorities took over, the band by time became inactive, but producer Joachim Nyberg and vocalist Robert Bävermalm’s love for music was never forgotten.

To this date Underwhere has over 20 songs available on Spotify.[4] [5] They have even had their song “Burning Bridges (Underwhere song)” played on the Swedish Pirate Rock radio station and were "Veckan's band" translating to "The band of the week" from Swedish in November, 2019.[6] The same song sports over 37,000 streams on Spotify.
Musical style[edit]
Underwhere's music often fluctuates between hard rock, heavy metal. Their official Facebook page describes the band as "the most groovy melodic metal ever"[7]. lyrics are written by Joachim Nyberg and Robert Bävermalm, however it is not uncommon for their respective family members and friends to input their own texts and backing vocals in Underwhere songs. For example, in the song "Miss You (Underwhere song)" Joachim Nybergs daughter, Sabina Nyberg, wrote and sang in the last verse. Tiina Nyberg, Joachims wife, has also contributed to the band's lyrics, as "Change (Underwhere song)" and one of their upcoming songs is solely written by Tiina. The lyrics as Joachim has stated, are based on their own "life experiences, life view and goes straight into to the heart".
