SING A SONG FIGHTER

Barnet

Galen Och Kär

    The Umeå trio Barnet is back!

    It’s been seven years since Barnet’s acclaimed debut album 'Tänk på döden' was released. It feels both like a long time ago and somehow quite recent…

    Sing a Song Fighter is very happy to be releasing this fall the masterful upcoming album 'Galen och kär', which among other things includes a duet with Mattias Björkas (Vasas Flora och Fauna).

    With three-part, heavenly lead vocals, direct and striking lyrics, and wonderful melodies, their music often becomes lofty and deeply enchanting. And since they have roots in the Swedish folk tradition, that naturally finds its way into the music—accompanied closely by their great love for pop music with glittering arpeggios, floating soundscapes, and analog keyboards and synths, all masterfully recorded here by Christian Gabel (1900, bob hund).

    Welcome back, Barnet!

    The Second Hand Orchestra

    Puzzle

      'Puzzle' is following up the praised 'Slow Summer' EP release earlier this year which saw the always evolving orchestra take on well-known tracks from Bananarama, The Kinks and Lana Del Rey and rearrange them in their own unique, slow and quirky instrumental mix. Now, to free themselves from doing covers and recording other's music (they've released two instrumental Christmas albums in 2023 and 2024 with traditionals etc, recorded as a backing band for Scottish maestro James Yorkston on his last two Domino records releases), the orchestra leader Karl Jonas set up some rules within this very free flowing orchestra, for this new project: - To compose original compositions and since the orchestra members are all amazing artists and musicians on their own, Karl Jonas asked everyone to bring a sketch/idea/track each to the recording sessions. And since the orchestra involved 13 musicians for this session,they needed to not get stuck on some parts as time in the studio was limited (two days). So, everyone was given one hour to present their track to the others, play it around a little and then put it on tape. Spontaneity over production! Of course, this could easily have turned into a chaotic recording, but since the orchestra is used to this recording method (more than five albums) and have devoted itself to improvisations and in the moment-recordings - this session turned into one of their greatest experiences so far. The vinyl version comes with extraordinaire artwork by artist Lisa Jonasson.
