Isabella Lundgren & Johan Lindström
– “What cannot be told”
New music and a unique meeting! The jazz star Isabella Lundgren has worked together with the musical genius Johan Lindström on the album “What cannot be told”, which will be released in the spring of 2025 and taken on tour.
With them on stage are Martin Hederos (The Soundtrack of Our Lives, Tonbruket etc.), Dan Berglund (E.S.T., Rymden, Tonbruket etc.), and Nils Törnqvist (Amason, Träd Gräs och Stenar etc.).
– It is easy to love what is beautiful, but what do I do with everything else?
That inside me and in the world that chafes, that is deformed.
This is a prayer to be able to love that which cannot be saved.
This is what Isabella talks about the single “What cannot be saved”, the first single from the new album. Her words and tones have taken on new color and form in the encounter with Johan Lindström’s unique creative gift. It’s music that moves between genres and worlds – which, in both words and tone, searches for precisely the ineffable longing that exists within us.
Isabella Lundgren is one of Sweden’s leading jazz singers and a world-class artist. With a fantastic voice and unique intensity, she has the ability to literally captivate her audience. Isabella has been nominated for a Grammy and has been awarded numerous prizes and scholarships. In recent years, we have seen her sing both at the Sports Gala and SVT’s New Year’s Concert, Allsång at Skansen and in På Spåret. In 2016, Isabella gave an attention-grabbing Summer Talk in P1 where she highlighted several of the life issues that are also reflected and are central to her music.
Johan Lindström is undoubtedly one of Sweden’s most sought-after musicians and composers, known as guitarist & pedal steel guitarist in the four-time Grammy award-winning Tonbruket and his own Johan Lindström Septett. Also known for, as a producer, often succeeding in picking up unsuspected musical nuggets in artists. Rebecka Törnqvist, Elvis Costello, Ane Brun, Freddie Wadling, Totta Näslund, Titiyo and Anna Ternheim are just a few of the artists Johan Lindström has collaborated with, and now Isabella Lundgren has also been added to this solid list.
