P-Floyd wins Surrogate Bands Pink Floyd Cover Contest

Posted July 8, 2024 by Floydian Slip

P-Floyd

P-Floyd, a Pink Floyd tribute band from Dalarna, Sweden, has won our 12th Annual Surrogate Bands Pink Floyd Cover Contest.

The group took the prize with its cover of “Pigs (Three Different Ones).”

Formed in 1993 by guitarist Jan Stumsner, the group has sold-out concert halls in Sweden and Scandinavia. Its 2016 shows at Dalhalla earned the band “Live Act of the Year” at the Dalecarlia Music Awards.

This past week, P-Floyd had its winning entry played on “Floydian Slip” episode #1473 — a special episode of our weekly Floyd radio show that was devoted entirely to other bands’ recordings of Floyd music.

The group also receives merchandise from the official webstore of Pink Floyd, shop.pinkfloyd.com.
