There are two different bands with this name:

1) Broken Records (Edinburgh)

Broken Records formed at the end of 2006 in Edinburgh, Scotland. With seven multi‑instrumentalists utilising a wide range of instruments including piano, organ, violin, ‘cello, accordion, trumpet, mandolin, ukulele, harmonium and glockenspiel alongside guitars, bass and drums, they’ve set about bringing together their diverse musical backgrounds to create a dramatic and eclectic sound. 2007 was spent constantly gigging and refining their sound. During this time they won the T Break competition for unsigned bands which landed them slots at T in the Park, a headline show at the Liquid Room in Edinburgh and a BBC Radio session with Vic Galloway.

In 2008 they released their debut single “If The News Makes You Sad, Don’t Watch It” on London based indie label, Young Turks. The single received plaudits from such varied publications as NME, The Guardian, Drowned in Sound, The Sun and The Times. Steve Lamacq named it his Single of the Week and Huw Stephens invited the band to record a Radio 1 session at the BBC studios in Maida Vale.

A number of festival appearances followed, including Latitude, T in the Park and Leeds Festival which led to NME hailing them as “one of the country’s most exciting new bands” Channel 4 dedicating a show to them as part of Levis Ones To Watch, and 3 sessions for Marc Riley’s BBC6 show. Limited edition releases of two further acclaimed singles, “Slow Parade” and “Lies”, culminated in the band signing to the prestigious 4AD label and being tipped for 2009 in Q Magazine, The Times and News of The World. To date they have also enjoyed support slots with Editors, The Futureheads, The Twilight Sad, Noah & The Whale, Frightened Rabbit and Sons & Daughters.

In January they recorded their debut album, «Until The Earth Begins To Part» at the infamous Monnow Valley studios…читать далее ↓

2) Broken Records (Sweden)
Story of the band:
In the autumn of 2003 Erik and Johan started to fumble some songs together in Johan´s narrow apartment in Majorna, Gothenburg. Low-key, lo-fi acoustic music with close harmony and a richness of melody came out of these experiments.
The technical incompetent duo borrowed a portabel digital studio and managed, somehow, during winter and spring 2004, to record around thirty songs. Some of these recordings were spread among friends and family and resulted in an appreciated debut live performance at a student´s pub in april.
Henrik, with his white Fender Stratocaster, came along in the autumn of 2004. There were now three songwriters in the band, with a broad taste in music, and the sound was widened with a more “mature” feel to it.
Plenty of rehearsals, a handful of live performances and some easy-to-forget home recordings later, contact was made with Daniel Y. During a weekend in july 2005, in a small cellar studio in Guldheden (Goldmoor), Gothenburg, he recorded three songs with the trio. They ended up on Broken Records first official CD-R: “The Goldmoor Sessions/The Livingroom Sessions” 2006.

Three
(October 28 & November 18-19, 2006)

Three is a magic number, they say. And during three days in October & November 2006 so it seemed: The three members of Broken Records headed for Music a Matic studios at Tredje (3rd) Långgatan in Gothenburg to record three songs. With Thomas Andrén's spot-on ideas and delicate hands a richer and warmer sound was born. In organic and earthy Nearby Hills the band deals with the members obsession with kite flying. Anne - a song frequent on the band's live set list - finally gets all dressed up in full costume. Titte Carlsson joins the band on backing vocals on Desperado; a song starting in old time Broken Records style but finishing off the Three-sessions in grand style.
