STATE COWS es una de las pocas bandas modernas de Yachts rock/westcoast/AOR que crea nueva música original. La banda está compuesta por Daniel Andersson en voces y guitarras y Stefan Olofsson en teclados y bajo. Muchos músicos invitados han contribuido a sus grabaciones y conciertos en vivo, especialmente Jay Graydon (dos veces ganador del Grammy, doce veces nominado al Grammy, STEELY DAN, EARTH, WIND & FIRE), Bill Champlin (CHICAGO), Jason Scheff (CHICAGO) , Michael Landau (MICHAEL JACKSON, PINK FLOYD) e Ian Bairnson (PROYECTO KATE BUSH, ALAN PARSONS).
Después de lanzar el álbum "Days in L.A." Para recibir críticas favorables, Daniel Andersson y su colaborador Stefan Olofsson decidieron embarcarse en un proyecto de Yacht Rock sin compromisos. Este proyecto comenzó como un homenaje a Steely Dan llamado THE SECOND ARRANGEMENT. Pronto transformaron el tributo de Steely Dan en la banda STATE COWS y comenzaron a escribir un álbum de nuevas canciones.

After releasing the album "Days in L.A." to rave reviews, Daniel Andersson and collaborator Stefan Olofsson decided to embark on a full-fledged, no-compromise yacht rock project. This project started out as a Steely Dan tribute called THE SECOND ARRANGEMENT. They soon transformed the Steely Dan tribute into the band STATE COWS and started writing an album of brand new yacht rock songs.
