Swedish jangle pop trio the Charade is Ingela Matsson (vocals), ex-Red Sleeping Beauty and Shermans member Mikael Matsson (keyboard, bass, drums), and ex-Happydeadmen member Magnus Karlsson (guitar, vocals). Karlsson met Mikael Matsson at a party in Stockholm in 2004, and due to distance they decided to exchange recordings through e-mail. They issued two albums through Skipping Stones: The Best Is Yet to Come (June 2005) and A Real Life Drama (June 2006). ~ Kenyon Hopkin
