The Weeknd JENNIE | en

The Weeknd, the stage name for Abel Tesfaye, is a Canadian singer-songwriter and producer. The Scarborough, Toronto-born singer, songwriter, and producer doesn't say much outside of his lyrics or personal messages through his social networking sites. Ever since appearing on the scene in late 2010, he's been shrouded in mystery, cultivating a mystique that baffles our gossip-obsessed pop culture. With that said, the 27-year-old alternative R&B phenomenon is an enigma in more ways than one. For him, it's not about becoming famous. It's not about becoming rich. It's not about pleasing anyone. It's about being honest, staying true to his...

“This local thrush’s imminent Superman Won’t Take the Call proves both her and her band capable of a husky uplift and rhythmic wallop rarely heard in the female-folkie field. Nashville belters like Joe Dee Messina or Martina McBride would be proud to tear into small-town geo-sociological explorations as earthily popwise as “Tallulah Falls” or “The River” or the Carolina twister romance chronicle “One More Day.” And Jennie’s fine with blues riffs and Nirvana basslines, too.” Chuck Eddy, Village Voice “If Superman won’t take the call, then he’s missing the boat… Her voice can pierce your heart one moment, then turn...

Beyond DeVoe’s compelling sound—her soulful hippie-funk vocals—is her hypnotic, manic energy. She is capable of engaging totally, locking eyes, her conversation instantly confessional and intimate, wacky and profound as she rockets from topic to topic. With her pierced nose, bohemian affectations, there’s a rowdiness and youth about her, and to make her laugh is to bask in her particular brand of strange sunshine—fans, photographers, street vendors, babies and animals seem to lean into what she radiates, and work all the arder to keep the attention coming. .

Jennie Abrahamson is a singer-songwriter from Sweden. 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. Livssoundtracks, säger andra.
