Emilie Lund - Emilie Lund EP (2009)
/Psych-folk, Dream folk, New Weird Europe, Indie folk, Folk indie, Alt-folk, Singer-songwriter/
Comment: a handful of intimate folk songs by Emilie Lund, a Stockholm, Swedish-based singer-songwriter. It is hinted at lastfm that she is the daughter of former hippies who grew up on a farm on the countryside and creates music looking for love and long lost childhood friend in the capital of Sweden. He used to exploit mainly guitar, sometimes piano and glockenspiel either. And of course, her voice does fulfill the goal, being truly suggestive and compelling. Sometimes she used to layer her songs vocally (polyphonically) being haunting and dream-soaked alternately. Especially at Something Is Eating Me. However, all the pieces are craftily accentuated and used to be penchant for profound folk divas like Julia Kotowski aka Entertainment For The Braindead, the sisters Cassidy aka CocoRosie, and Joanna Newsom. In a word, the EP is an instance of nowadays girl power (unlikely many of those gals who strip down herself and being the object for manipulations).
