Sagor & Swing are a Swedish instrumental duo that fused disparate musical genres such as jazz, electronic music, and Scandinavian folk music. The band consisted of Eric Malmberg (organ, synthesizer), and Ulf Möller (drums) Ulf Möller was replaced in 2007 by Fredrik Björling, who previously played in Dungen, The Amazing, etc. The band's sound was defined by Malmberg's distinctive organ playing. A major source of inspiration was organist Bo Hansson (formerly of Hansson & Karlsson), who collaborated with the group in a number of performances.
