EMILIA MÅRTENSSON picture
Emilia Mårtensson is a London based, Swedish singer of considerable repute. Her critically acclaimed contributions (both as vocalist and lyricist) to jazz’s newest stars, Kairos 4Tet, no doubt helped them bring home a 2011 MOBO Award, while her distinctive voice led the Observer to claim her 'The New Face of British Jazz 2012'.

Drawing on the wistful folk songs of Emilia’s homeland alongside some of the greatest songs of the last century, the recording is a finely poised blend of jazz and artful alt-pop. For sure, the jazz vocal legends inform Emilia's approach, yet it is the Swedish folk songs of her country that underpins who she is. Her pure, clear toned intimate voice, at times deeply soulful, at others ethereal, blur the lines between folk and jazz.

Emilia moved away from her home in Sweden in 2000 to study music at one ofLondon’s most prestigious conservatories, Trinity College of Music.
