With a background as a fearless improviser in Mopo Trio, Ricky-Tick Big Band, and Superposition, saxophonist Linda Fredriksson now takes the step up as bandleader, where they reveal a more introverted and quiet side. The end result is an honest and personal singer-songwriter style, performed by an instrumental jazz band, with music composed in self-chosen isolation – inspired by such diverse artists as Sufjan Stevens, Alice Coltrane, Feist, Eric Dolphy, Neil Young, and Billie Eilish. A deeply personal musical diary of rhythms, melodies, and powerful improvisations.

A world unto itself
