Det Vackra Livet are a Swedish indie dream pop band, signed to Labrador Records.
The group's first single "Viljan" was released in early 2011, and a self-titled debut album followed in May of that same year.
Det Vackra Livet was formed in Gothenburg by brothers Henrik and Philip Ekström.
[2] The brothers are also founding members of Swedish dreampop group The Mary Onettes, with whom Det Vackra Livet shares much of its sound and influences.
Inspired by his grandmother's memories and Finland Swedish poet Claes Andersson, Philip Ekström wrote fifteen songs which would become material for the band during a creative outburst in late 2010.
