REVIEW
♦ Lisa Ekdahls musikaliska resa spårar sig numera fram mer utomlands än hemma i Sverige. Lite i skymundan av våra mest uppmärksammade musikexporter sjunger hon ibland annat USA och Frankrike eller som här, spelar in på Kuba.
♦ Det latinska har ju alltid haft en plats i Lisa Ekdahls musik men efter tjugo år som artist kan hon visa upp en utvecklingskurva där musiken numera är mycket mer elegant och med fler lager och nyanser.
♦ Det här är ingen Buena Vista–platta, det handlar mer om en solmättad känsla. Någon ambition att skriva nya hits verkar inte finnas, Ekdahl ägnar sig snarare åt att dekorera sin musik med detaljer samtidigt som hon håller fast vid rösten, den så omdebatterade.

Biography:
♦ In the winter of 1994 Lisa Ekdahl was brought into superstardom over night in Scandinavia. Lisa’s debut album sold quadruple platinum and gave her three grammy awards. Her laid back style, matched with her fragility and sensitivity has dazzled fans and critics alike.
♦ Several European countries and especially France has fallen for her understated way of performing jazz standards, bossanova and original songs.
♦ Lisa got her first record deal with EMI when she was hired by singer/songwriter Toni Holgersson to sing background vocals on his album. The background singing didn’t turn out well but instead Lisa was discovered by EMI’s head of A&R and offered to make her own record, which became the debut album “Lisa Ekdahl” (EMI).
♦ At the age of 19 Lisa Ekdahl started to perform in small jazz clubs with swedish jazz trio “The Peter Nordahl trio”. Lisa has sometimes referred to the years playing smaller clubs with this great trio as a form or “musical education.”
♦ Lisa & the trio played a series of concerts at club La Villa in the Saint Germain area of Paris which was the starting point for Lisa’s career in France. Lisa Ekdahl & Peter Nordahl Trio released two albums together: “When did you leave Heaven” & “Back to earth”.
♦ In 2001 Lisa released the bossa nova album “Lisa Ekdahl sings Salvadore Poe”. The album gained a lot of appreciation in several european countries, especially in France where the album sold gold.
♦ After living in NYC for some time Lisa went back to Stockholm to record the 9 original compositions for “Give me that slow knowing smile”, released in 2009 by Sony Music France. The album was released in 14 countries.
♦ Lisa’s latest project is the CD & DVD deluxe combo “Lisa Ekdahl at the Olympia, Paris“.
♦ "C’est en 1994 qu’est devenu célèbre cette chanteuse suédoise avec son premier album éponyme et la chanson Vem Vet, elle avait alors 23 ans et remporta plusieurs Swedish Music Awards. Elle va alors conquérir l’Europe avec sa belle voix d’enfant, douce et sensible. Avec des albums de jazz, de bossa nova et aussi de pop, chantant en anglais et en suédois, Lisa Ekdahl construit une bien jolie carrière. Son nouvel album est produit par Mathias Blomdahl et Tobias Fröberg et sera inspiré de Cuba, ses couleurs, sa musique, ses odeurs..."
