GREENLEAF (SWEDEN)
You won’t want to miss Greenleaf’s FIRST EVER SHOW IN THE US at the world’s best family reunion of the year!
Tickets on sale now:
Greenleaf became a proper band after more than a decade as a loose collective of friends making 70s-inspired hard rock and proto-metal. Led by guitarist Tommi Holappa, co-founder of European desert rock originators Dozer, various configurations of Greenleaf with personnel from Lowrider, Truckfighters, Demon Cleaner and Dozer came and went during those early years. But after five records and twice as many cast members rotating in and out, Tommi began to feel Greenleaf could be something more.
Its evolution from side project to focused band began when Tommi reached out to the classically-trained Arvid Hällagård in 2013 to sing on a new track. Arvid’s early stoner rock band Giant Space Cruiser had played with Dozer some years before, and Tommi had kept tabs on the charismatic singer. Along with drummer Sebastian Olsson, who began as a fill-in but would become the second-longest tenured Greenleaf member behind Tommi, they worked on one song and then another, Arvid taking things in a different direction vocally than any previous version of the project had seen. The sense was immediate that things had changed, and what they were making was a true album.
Today Greenleaf are widely recognized as a dominating live act and one of the most prolific and obsessively listenable outfits to emerge from the European heavy underground.

Swedish heavy rockers Greenleaf bring their groove-laden, riff-driven sound to Desertfest Berlin 2026! Built on massive hooks, warm vintage tones, and that unmistakable Scandinavian desert vibe, Greenleaf deliver pure, unfiltered heaviness with soul.
With roots deep in the European stoner scene, their sound blends classic rock swagger with crushing modern fuzz—creating a sonic ride that feels both timeless and fiercely alive. Expect big riffs, bigger grooves, and melodies that stick long after the amps cool down!
