“[…]but with her amazing voice, she makes it sound as effortless as an exhalation.”
- Mikael Timm, Swedish Radio P1

Swedish jazz vocalist Ellen Andersson has been described as two voices in one - the young, curious and the mature, experienced - a person with a rare artistic depth. With a distinctive voice and an unmistakable expression she has, since her debut in 2016 with “I’ll Be Seeing You”, been praised by both critics and audiences - quickly establishing herself as one of the most notable artists on the Swedish jazz scene. In 2020, she released her long-awaited second album - “You Should Have Told Me”, which earned her a Swedish Grammy nomination as well as the Monica Zetterlund Award. In September 2024, her third and latest album “Impressions of Evans”, a portrait of legendary Bill Evans’ music and his collaboration with said Monica Zetterlund was released.

“A vocalist has rarely been this wished-for. Finally!”, Johan Norberg wrote, and her debut album was awarded “Best Album of the Year” by Swedish jazz magazine Orkesterjournalen, as well as “Newcomer of the Year” by Swedish National Radio. Since then, she has been seen and heard on stages across Sweden as well as abroad, often with acclaimed symphony orchestras and big bands and as a soloist with other artists. 2024 sees the release of her third album - ”Impressions of Evans” - in collaboration with some of Denmark’s most acclaimed jazz musicians.
