Swedish For Beginners Kolla länken nedan. Där nämns SFB som en av Arvikafestivalens höjdpunkter av festivalfolket själva.

"...vi har sett helt otroliga framträdanden på de mindre scenerna Lyran, Andromeda, Jamobilen och Orion. Ett exempel är Swedish for Beginners som fick folket i Lyran att dansa med en energi som sällan skådats."

Vi tackar allra ödmjukast för dessa ord. :)
