Jennie Abrahamson

Jennie har tidigare hörts i triphopbandet Heed och altcountryakten Yukon AK, och bakom akter som Di Leva, Kristoffer Åström, Tomas Andersson Wij och Isolation Years. På hennes solodebut "Lights" möter vi ett ganska otraditionellt singer/songwriter-sound, de har sökt efter ett större, dansigare och krispigare ljudlandskap än vad som normalt tillskrivs genren. Ensamma synthar och trummaskiner blandas med akustiska gitarrer, gamla pianon och välklingande cymbaler och så uppstår något nytt. Popmusik, säger Jennie.
