It’s hard to find artists doing something truly original these days, so Linnea Olsson is a breath of fresh air. Armed with only her cello, loop pedal and unaffected vocal, she weaves dramatic, tender tales of love, guilt and the sea. We first heard ‘Giddy Up!’ last year when Olsson was supporting fellow Scandinavian, Ane Brun. This year she has embarked on her first headline tour of the UK, to generally adoring reviews. Listen and love her.
