Linda Fredriksson
Intimate Indie Folk Meets Jazz
Fredriksson explores emotion in subtle, powerful jazz with a songwriter’s touch
The most natural way to familiarise yourself with Linda Fredriksson’s music is through emotions. Curiosity, joy, wonder, excitement, longing, calm, and hope: the spectrum evoked by the rich baritone, the alto saxophone, and Fredriksson's compositions is extraordinary.
These emotions first truly emerged when Fredriksson, who had played in diverse other ensembles for many years, was working in meticulous detail on their solo debut album, Juniper. This sensitive and introspective album from 2021 is characterised by gradually shaped compositions and moods drawn from both the singer-songwriter tradition and the history of jazz. Fredriksson herself described Juniper as a refuge in chaos, and as a way of forging a meaningful connection with the world through music. Linda Fredriksson presents their new album at DE SINGEL.
