Lindell, Jesper
Everyday Dreams
Jesper Lindell was the breakout star of 2017 on the Swedish music scene, when he released his debut EP. Produced by Benkt Soderberg, father and former producer of the world-renowned sister duo First Aid Kit, Little Less Blue presented a collection of songs that were equal parts soul, Americana and rock. The praise from Swedish music journalists was immediate: the notable rock guru Jan Gradvall likened Jesper Lindell to a "young, agile and karate-kicking Van Morrison", and well-respected music magazine GAFFA noted that Lindell was a "shooting star" who seemed too talented to be a product of a such a small country like Sweden. Engineered by Zach Anderson, of the American/Swedish band Blues Pills, Jesper Lindells enticing debut album "Everyday Dreams" is a clever mixture of rock, folk, blues and soul, performed by a 26 year old musician in love with classic pop, Stax-Volt R&B, and that old time rock & roll. Hailing from a small town near Stockholm in Sweden, and gifted with an amazing soulful voice, guitarist/pianist/songwriter Jesper Lindell delivers an intimate album that could have been recorded in the late sixties.
