Swedish~ Stereo~

Saturday night fun with Sommarksysset and loads of live performances from the artists we constantly write about.
Anna Sahlene has performed the newest single "Horns of Mississippi", earlier this year she has come back with a ballad "Jamie". "Horns of Mississippi" shows that Anna is definitely on experimental way as this is jazzy retro-pop that should work well for a summer open-air performances. You can also watch Tomas Andersson Wij, Wallmans ensemble and Icona Pop performing their latest single "I Love It".
And yes, there was Ivi!!! Ivi Adamou who represented Cyprus at Eurovision with Swedish song which has climbed up in Swedish chart higher than "Euphoria" - the only really big hit of Eurovision-2012 in Sweden (except "Euphoria"). Ivi was on fire, she never sounded so well. Hope she'll stay in Sweden for a while to make another hit with local songwriters!

Tomas Andersson Wij - Sturm and drang

Annual Idrottsgalan is back with a bunch of some top-artist who were with us during last year and seems like are going to be next year too.
We've got big voice trio of Sonja Aldén, Linda Pritchard and Anna Sahlene with "Higher & Higher", Lisa Miskovsky who sounded...hm, pretty unusual in Sting's "Fields of Gold" (but it was pretty emotional performance in memory of some Swedish sportsmen who died in 2011), Markoolio with his own song "In med bollen" and company of Lili and Susie, Hammerfall with Judas Priest's "Breaking the Law" (they're doing pretty loads of TV lately, are we gonna get them on MF soon?), Louise Hoffsten with her own old song "Let the best man win" and The Clash's "London Calling" performed by Nicke Borg who has become much more actively interacting with audience since last spring. Thanks for the tip about event to Schlagerfiasko that you absolutely must follow when ESC-season is at full speed.

Sarah Dawn Finer takes part already in the second charity company this autumn providing her grand vocal for release of the single to attract attention to human problems.
Few months ago Sarah has recorded the track "Song for the Forgotten" together with artists like LaGaylia, Patrik Isaksson, Carola and Daniel Lindström. Main goal of the release was to help people in Horn of Africa. And now she gets to another company. With Anna Sahlene, Afro-Dite's Gladys del Pilar and other artists they've come up for another single "One In A Million" to bring up the attention to St Clara church and problems of homeless people, volunteers of this church were always involved in this activity. Really nice soul-ballad with 90s sound and some amazing voices.
