传记
The Big Picture is music made by Swedish musician Mikael Salomonsson. Since he joined his first band in junior high school he's been involved in several bands and music projects playing diverse styles of music. Parallel with the bands there has always been a solo project, and after 2006 (when Mikael's former band The Gentleman Racer decided to stop playing together) The Big Picture became the main thing.
The First CDr made under the name The Big Picture came in 2004 and since then there have been 2 more CDr:s. The last one, entitled "Songs from a hard sleeper", came in 2006 following a trip to China and India (Hard Sleeper is a train carriage class in China). It was not until the finishing of this CD that The Big Picture started to regularly do shows. With the help of friends from other Stockholm bands like Springfactory, Television keeps us apart and former The Gentleman Racer members Salomonsson began to play clubs and events in and around Stockholm. In the summer of 2007 The Big Picture also played the demo stage of the Quart festival in Norway.
With The Big Picture Mikael Salomonsson aims to combine great song writing influenced by people like Elliott Smith, Cat Power and Neil Young with the playful productions of contemporary indie and lo-fi music. Growing up in the Stockholm suburb Haninge (known for giving rise to a lot of great Swedish bands), the creative spirit of the Haninge musicians has been a great influence for The Big Picture.
Followed Mikael Salomonsson's Chinese study,The Big Picture have moved to China now.Also,Their first full length album have released by Series Two Records(US) and 1724 Records(CN) in Oct.2008.
The Big Picture是一支由瑞典音乐人Mikael Salomonsson创立的乐队。此人从上初中时第一次加入乐队起，一直纠缠于众多的乐队和计划中，玩着各种风格迥异的音乐。而在所有这些乐队之外，他一直在坚持做自己的个人计划。到2006年之后，当时Mikael所在的乐队The Gentleman Racer决定解散，于是他可以把主要的精力都投入到The Big Picture。
在The Big Picture的音乐里，Mikael Salomonsson想要把从Elliott Smith、Cat Power和Neil Young等唱作人那里受到的影响，与时下indie和lo-fi等有意思的元素相结合。Mikael Salomonsson成长于斯德哥尔摩城郊的Haninge，那里曾经孕育了许多伟大的瑞典乐队；Haninge音乐人的无限创造力，同样给The Big Picture留下了不可磨灭的影响。
The Big Picture首张全长于2008年8月由美国独立厂牌Series Two发行。2008年10月，该唱片由拾柒贰肆以限量形式发行中国版
