"Four Wings" is the second studio album by the heavy blues rock band Ebba Bergkvist & The Flat Tire Band

Following their critically acclaimed debut "Spilt Milk" from 2020, the Swedish band returns with 10 new tracks where heavy guitar riffs, raw garage rock, and soulful blues blend with powerful vocals and a psychedelic '70s fare. While embracing a modern approach to production, the sound is frmly rooted in infuences from artists such as Rival Sons, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Blues Pills, Lucifer, and Jimi Hendrix. The outcome is a diverse and dynamic album full of energy and emotion.

"Four Wings" is produced and recorded by Ebba Bergkvist in Silence Studio in Koppom as well as Helgen Studio, Stockholm. All artwork for the album as well as its singles are hand drawn by Ebba. Erik Petersson, who previously worked with bands such as Siena Root and Heavy Feather mixed the album in No Regrets Fonogram Studio, and Fredrik Stalne mastered it. "Four Wings" is released by The Sign Records on turquoise vinyl with gatefold cover.

Ebba Bergkvist & The Flat Tire Band on the album:

It all began when, in the state between wakefulness and sleep, I saw a white seagull with four wings fying over a beautiful valley. I woke up, wrote down what I had seen, and began formulating what would become the concept of this album. "If I were a bird, I wouldn't have two wings, I would have four" - it represents an arrogance, an unreasonable ambition. That's how the album begins, to then bring you back down to earth, present the downsides, and ultimately let you accept your fate. After three years of reformulations, restructuring, and arrangement difculties, our second album is fnally ready for the world, and we are incredibly proud
