Sorry I've been offline for a while - school started again, and I think that gives me all the excuses in the world!
As promised, here is the third installment' in Sounds From Sweden: Frida Hyvönen and The Tiny. Let's start with Frida...
Born in 1977, Swedish singer-songwriter Frida Hyvönen has been touring the US, Scandinavia and Europe with her piano since 2004. Here's the first one I heard by her, and probably my favourite. It's a cute, quirky little song.
'Birds' - Frida Hyvönen
I really love the next video, where she builds a piano in a forest - how can you not find that awesome?
'The Modern' - Frida Hyvönen
Frida is someone I like to listen to when I'm in a cheerful springy mood :D I think her personality of music sounds a little bit like a small bird hopping around!
Next up we have The Tiny. The trio star pianist and vocalist Ellekari Larsson, cellist Leo Svensson, and upright bassist Johan Berthling. Their music is influenced by all kinds of music, ranging from classical to jazz, to goth to pop, and their music is reminiscent of Björk and Kate Bush. I can definitely hear some Kate Bush in this one:
'Last Weekend' - The Tiny
I love that song. I'm not even going to post another song, because I think that is enough to encourage those who enjoyed it to look into The Tinys (The Tinies?). Because that's what this blog is about: it's not just showing you a few new songs, it's trying to encourage you to look into new bands and I'm just starting you off and suggesting places for you to look. So please do :D ---HT---
Do you like McFly?
