You’re invited to an intimate concert of unreleased songs performed by several different artists. Two sets of new music are combined with the stories behind the songs, hands-on songwriting strategies and a Q&A - all with the aim of inspiring the audience.
The line up contains a mix of established acts and up-and-coming musicians who play stripped-back versions of their songs in solo or duo-settings.
STELLA EXPLORER
Stella Explorer's musical landscape is a blend of ambient pop and dark rhythms that together form a loosely connected terrain with a clear common thread. It's a musical range she's explored over the years, largely while a member of the experimental pop band Brödet. Over time, different fragments of her have emerged — not least from her South African heritage. Her grandfather was a jazz musician who came to Sweden in the 1950s. Several of her influences stem from a musical household, which she says has resulted in her searching for melodies in everything.
Using broken and borrowed instruments, she blends familiar sounds and places them in different worlds. She merges others' stories with her own, often rooted in love's darker forces and sudden turns. Her voice bends from dark depths to sparkling heights, circling in as easily as it chases down. By letting all her influences take up space, she creates her own world where fragments of pop, ambient, and house mix freely.
With her two EP releases "Dorkay House" and "Lost Kingdom," Stella Explorer has created her own entirely unique musical universe — earning both a Grammis and a P3 Guld nomination in the process.
VIT PÄLS
This evening, Carl Johan Lundgren joins us for a stripped-back solo performance ahead of the long-awaited new album 'Riddare och trumpeter' that lands in November 2026. Expect a performance centered on the audience, framed by Lundgren's distinctive banter and rapport with the crowd.
In the early 2010s, Vit Päls was a fixture of the Swedish indie scene. The band broke up in 2014, but interest in their music never faded — if anything, it reached cult status thanks to the narrative lyrics and distinctive style.
Lundgren describes the new album as more direct, more upbeat, and at the same time the most melancholic Vit Päls album yet.
Fans of Lundgren's world might also check out his 2026 novel debut, "Mitt eget bull Hawaii," which critic Samuel Levander praised in DN for its distinctive style.
I'M KINGFISHER
Indie/folk artist with a love for ambient and drone, With over 700 shows in 20 countries and 9 solo albums, Thomas Jonsson has always been equally obscure and acclaimed. He won an Manifest Award 2021 for the quiet indie/country album The Past Has Begun, and made the song The Pain of Happiness for the motion picture Comedy Queen in 2022. This year he released the new album Give Up Together as well as making a cameo and providing songs for the new movie Biodlaren / The Quiet Beekeeper. Upon that, he's soon the subject of the short and very stripped music documentary Words Have Missed Me.
QUIET COMMOTION
Quiet Commotion is a bedroom and solo project from Malmö led by 18-year-old Daniel Katz, who already has four albums under his belt. The latest, "Spring," was released this year on the Stockholm label Dream On.
"But for those of you who might have missed it: Imagine if Elliott Smith came back to life and dashed around Sweden to secretly stage an indie comeback. That's exactly what it sounds like. '90s revival, effortlessly cool, and provocatively good." - Slaktkyrkan Stockholm
