1981年出生的瑞典女孩，斯德哥尔摩独立民谣唱作人，邻家女孩路线，简单吉他，配上略微厚重的鼓奏，懒洋洋声线，清新悦耳的旋律，也许北欧的寒冷，让人们更渴望阳光温暖，瑞典更是从不匮缺此类舒适写意的清新之音。

Swedish artist and renaissance woman Jonna Lee releases her second album on February 25.

"THIS IS JONNA LEE” will be released on Razzia records and anyone who knows her previous work will notice a huge difference in sound.

-I’m very excited about this record, it’s my masterpiece! It’s big, rough and beatiful. My debut album was quite dark and low key whereas this one is more loud, colourful and a bit punk.

Jonna was born in 1981 in Linköping, southern Sweden. Even though she comes from a family without musical references she knew early on what she was meant to be doing, music, on her own terms.

In 2007 Lee released her promising debut album ”10 piece, 10 bruises” That she had produced together with producer and Travis-pianist Claes Björklund. The album was not only released through Razzia records in Sweden but also on legendary indie label P-vine in Japan and was very well received by both listeners and critics in Sweden and abroad.

While on tour that same year, Jonna spent her time on trains and planes writing down everything on her mind in a textbook. She brought it back to rehearsal space in Stockholm that after some modifications became a studio and decided together with Claes Björklund and band collegue Johan Lundgren it was time to try the new studio out.

- The first song we recorded was "Sinking Low" and it sounded so damn good it activated some kind of songwriting mechanism in me, and that's how it all started. I turned all those lyrics into songs, one by one. I told everone involved I had "a thousand songs ready to be recorded". But that was just to keep everyone motivated. The reality was I created each song just before recording.

The result is a record that's intense and strong. The lyrics are much more personal than before and really gets under your skin, like the heavy memory in "The Weight and the Beating of His Heart" or the self-excorsism of first single "My High".

"There Was Me" is a story about self-destructiveness whilst "The Light" challenges the listener to take a stand.

If you ask Jonna Lee herself, her genre of music is smart pop with a punk-ish acoustic feel, so placing her in the singer/songwriter category won't do you any favours. -I'm just trying to find the feel I had as a kid. The very core of myself as an artist. Sounds a bit new age, but that's how it is.

So the title of the album is obvious: "THIS IS JONNA LEE".
