Initially de la Mancha was a project founded by childhood friends Jerker Lundh and Dag Rosenqvist back in the early days of summer 2003. Jerker had written a couple of songs which needed some structure and arrangements and Dag needed some time away from his other engagements in music. On the first real summer evening of 2003, Jerker and Dag opened up a couple of bottles of wine, rigged up a microphone, plugged in a guitar and started recording demos. Three complete song ideas were laid down that night, all of them accompanied by the sound of girlfriends and cars passing. A shared admiration for groups like Red House Painters, Sigur Rós, Led Zeppelin and My Bloody Valentine set out a general direction for the duo.
