Biography

Swedish band formed in Gothenburg in 1979.
Their musical style can be defined as a mix of garage rock, gothic rock and sleazy pop. When they released the third album "Nun Permanent" in 1991, their record company went bankrupt, which slowly led to their dissolution in 1995. In late 2013 they finally got the rights of the back catalogue and the use of the band name 'The Leather Nun' back and recorded a new album.
They also started reissuing early recordings on their label.
Jonas Almqvist, Bengt "Aron" Aronsson, Gert Claesson and others including Freddie Wadling (original bass player).
